The Miami Dolphins made a business decision to depart with longtime cornerback Xavien Howard this offseason and his replacement, Kendall Fuller, is all business.
The Miami Dolphins are replacing veteran cornerback Xavien Howard with Kendall Fuller, who will play opposite of All-Pro Jalen Ramsey, continuing the trend of 2016 NFL draft alum in their defensive backfield.
Defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver is confident Fuller will be more than an adequate replacement for Howard. Fuller said he was a fan of Howard, and had his eyes on Howard and Ramsey as his fellow draftees from 2016. Ramsey was the fifth overall pick in that draft, Howard was selected early in the second round, and Fuller was a third-round selection.
"This week all of us have been hanging around a lot and things like that," Fuller said. "Me and Jalen both came into the league at the same time, played with some players, shared some of the same coaches. So just laughing and talking about some of that and things like that. It's going to be fun just to get to know everybody, not just players but staff members, equipment staff, everything like that.
