Miami Dolphins rookies reported for training camp Tuesday, but the team announced that two players aren’t quite ready to participate.
Wide receiver Tahj Washington, who was a seventh-round pick in the 2024 NFL draft, was placed on the Dolphins’ physically unable to perform list. Undrafted safety Mark Perry was placed on the non-football injury list.
While different designations, the rules for both lists are essentially the same. The Dolphins may move either player to the active roster at any point during training camp. Until they do, Washington and Perry may participate in meetings and use team facilities, but cannot practice with the team.
If either Washington or Perry are still on the PUP list or NFI list, respectively, after roster cutdown day (Aug. 27), they will be out for at least the first four games of the regular season.
Washington led USC in receptions (59) and receiving yards (1,062) during his senior season in 2023 with eight touchdown receptions.
