The Miami Dolphins gave suspended safety T.J. McDonald a new contract.
The Dolphins signed McDonald to a 4 year contract fo a total of $24 million, the deal includes $10 million guaranteed. McDonald is suspended for the first eight-games of the season for violation of the NFL’s substance abuse policy.
The hard-hitting safety started 53 games for the Rams over four season. The 2013 third-round pick compiled 285 tackles, five sacks, four interceptions, and 17 passes defended.
McDonald’s physical style makes him the perfect complement to rangy safety Reshad Jones. The Dolphins must wait half the season to see the duo take the field together, but team brass loves the combo enough to lock down McDonald now.
