By the roster deadline, the Dolphins should be down to 53 players. Some, like Jalen Ramsey, will appear on this list before going on injured reserve on Wednesday, a procedural move that allows injured players to return to the team later in the season.

Miami Dolphins Cuts Analysis

• • The Dolphins have placed Nik Needham on reserve/PUP and Keion Crossen and Eric Saubert on IR.
  • 2020 first-round pick Noah Igbinoghene was not among the Dolphins players spotted at practice Tuesday. Here’s why: He’s been traded to the Dallas Cowboys for Kelvin Joseph.

• Defensive tackle Christian Wilkins was in uniform and participated in practice Tuesday. Wilkins had been holding in due to unhappiness over his contract.
• Other Dolphins not spotted at practice (they’ve been dealing with injuries): Liam Eichenberg, Jeff Wilson, and Justin Bethel.
• Neither Julian Hill nor Tanner Conner were at practice either.
• The Gaskin release — without a Jonathan Taylor trade lined up — shows how confident the Dolphins are in their running back depth.
• Feeney has been the odd man in the interior line for some time. Credit Grier for extracting some vaiue (sixth-round pick) for his $2 million dead cap figure.
• With Twyman gone, the path is cleared for undrafted rookie Pili to make the 53.
• Reed is a notable name, but his game just wasn’t good enough this summer. He joins Michell Agude and Cameron Goode as fringe EDGE players who did not make the 53.
• Cedrick Wilson’s contract has been reworked, per Jonathan Jones. The deal lowers his base salary to $2 million, with a $3 million signing bonus. The contract will void after 2023 and will save $3 million in cap space in 2023.
• The Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson reports that the Dolphins intend to bring McKinley back after moving injured players who hope to play in ’23 to the IR.

This is a developing story and will be updated constantly between now and 4 p.m. Tuesday.
