On Monday, the Miami Dolphins had the opportunity to elevate up to two players from their practice squad to the active roster for their Week 14 battle with the Tennessee Titans.
Miami opted to use both of them, as they elevated linebacker Quinton Bell and offensive tackle Ryan Hayes for the contest.
Bell, 27, was originally a seventh-round draft pick of the Oakland Raiders in 2019. He spent two seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and two more with the Atlanta Falcons. He joined the Dolphins practice squad back in October.
Hayes, 23, was a seventh-round pick of the Dolphins this past year following a collegiate career at Michigan. He was claimed by the Indianapolis Colts after roster cuts, but he returned to Miami’s practice squad after just a few weeks.
This is the first elevation for both players, who will have two more after this matchup.
