The Dolphins are adding a linebacker to their squad.
Aaron Wilson of Houston Chronicle reports that dolphins will sign ex-Texan Brennan Scarlett.
Scarlett has spent the past five seasons with the Texans and he has premiered 22 times in the past four seasons. He had 139 tackles, 5.5 sacks, three forced fumbles, an interception and a fumble recovery in 56 general appearances for the team.
The Dolphins acquired linebacker Benardrick McKinney in an exchange with Houston this week, so Scarlett will have a familiar face with him on defense. They also hired Vince Beigel, but released Kyle Van Noy a year after hiring him as a free agent.
