Dolphins To Release Kyle Van Noy
4 years agoThe Miami Dolphins informed linebacker Kyle Van Noy that he will be released, according to a source. The move comes just one year into a four-year, $51 million contract. The 29-year-old had just 69 tackles and six sacks in his lone season with the Dolphins. His release will save the Dolphins $9.75 million against the 2021 salary cap, while he'll incur a $4.125 dead-cap hit. With the release of Van Noy, linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel should move into a much larger role next season. While it is a somewhat surprising move, Van Noy's release just one year into a four-year deal won't hamstring the club much at all heading into the 2021 season with a lowered overall salary cap.
