The NFL’s legal tampering window is open, and teams are already agreeing to deals at a furious pace.
For the Miami Dolphins, their biggest pending free agent was defensive lineman Christian Wilkins, who bet on himself after he and the team couldn’t agree on a contract last offseason.
Now, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Wilkins has agreed to a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders that will pay him $110 million over four years.
Wilkins, 28, was selected by the Dolphins with the 13th overall pick in the 2019 NFL draft following a very successful collegiate career at Clemson.
In 81 career games for Miami, he recorded 355 tackles (43 for a loss), 50 quarterback hits, 20.5 sacks, 19 passes defensed, six fumbles recovered, four forced fumbles and one interception.
If the deal becomes official, the Dolphins will be losing a huge part of their team, not only on the field but also in the locker room.
