Miami Dolphins Add Jaheim Thomas and Ethan Conner to Roster

The Miami Dolphins have made roster changes as they prepare for the 2026 NFL regular season, signing tight end Ethan Conner and inside linebacker Jaheim Thomas.

To accommodate these additions, the team waived center Jim Bonifas and cornerback Ahmari Harvey. Thomas, who stands 6-foot-4 and weighs 223 pounds, previously played for the Louisville Kings in the UFL, where he recorded 79 tackles in 12 games during the 2026 season.

The Dolphins' decision to add Thomas comes after rookie linebacker Trey Moore sustained an ankle injury, necessitating additional depth at the position. Conner joins a competitive tight end group, and both players will need to quickly adapt to the team's playbook as the final roster cuts approach.
