The Miami Dolphins have been eliminated from the postseason following their 27-6 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs last Saturday night.
So, while Dolphins fans prepare for the offseason, there are a number of former Dolphins who are still playing for a Super Bowl championship that they can support.
This Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills are set to battle in a divisional-round matchup, and there are five former Dolphins on their rosters and practice squads.
Here’s a look at which players who once donned the aqua and orange will play in this one:
Bills DE Shaq Lawson
Lawson signed a three-year, $30 million deal with the Dolphins in 2020 after finishing his rookie contract with the Bills. Just one year into the deal, however, he was traded to the Houston Texans (along with a sixth-round pick) for linebacker Benardrick McKinney and a seventh-round pick.
In 14 games with Miami, Lawson recorded 32 tackles (four for a loss), 18 quarterback hits, four sacks, one pass defensed, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.
Bills WR Trent Sherfield
Sherfield signed a one-year deal with the Dolphins in 202, and while he wasn’t expected to be a contributor, he set a number of career highs before leaving for the Bills this past offseason.
In 14 games for Miami, Sherfield recorded 30 receptions for 417 yards and two touchdowns.
Bills OL Greg Mancz
Mancz was traded to the Dolphins (along with a seventh-round pick) for a sixth-round pick in 2021. He played part of the season but a neck injury kept him from seeing the field more.
He appeared in five games for Miami, starting four of them. He received a 61.9 overall grade by Pro Football Focus (62.7 in pass blocking and 59.6 in run blocking).
Chiefs OL Austin Reiter
Reiter was signed by the Dolphins off of the New Orleans Saints practice squad back in 2021. He started five games for the team before he was released later that season.
Chiefs RB La'Mical Perine
Perine spent the 2022 season on the Dolphins practice squad after he was released by the Philadelphia Eagles. Later that year, he signed with the Chiefs practice squad and won the Super Bowl with the team.
