Per NFL insider Arye Pulli, two-time Super Bowl Champion running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire tried out with the Miami Dolphins on July 28.
“The #Dolphins had former first-round RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire in for a tryout, per the wire,” Pulli wrote on X. “He played in two games in Kansas City last season.”
He played in two games in Kansas City last season.
Edwards-Helaire played five seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs after getting selected in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft. However, his five seasons with the Chiefs was spread out after getting waived in December 2024 and signing as a free agent with the New Orleans Saints.
In those six seasons, Edwards-Helaire tallied 1904 rushing yards, 12 rushing touchdowns, 798 receiving yards, and seven receiving touchdowns. He won back-to-back Super Bowls in 2023 and 2024 with the Chiefs.

Malik Willis Wants to Earn the Respect of His Teammates as QB1 This Season
In a press conference after training camp, newly signed free agent Malik Willis spoke about what it means to him to be QB1 for the first time in his career.
“I just try to do whatever I can to earn that role everyday… earn the respect from my teammates, I think that’s the most important more than a paycheck or more than a position other people say you’re in,” Willis said.
“I think it’s exciting,” Willis said about the start of training camp. “I mean, I miss football. I get bored, obviously. You’re just talking about throwing on air and that’s not fun at all, but it’s a method to the madness. It is like the first day of school. It’s the first time we get back and see all our buddies, all our coworkers, I guess, it’s a business. But all the guys are excited to go, and we’ve just got to continue that up throughout camp, through the preseason and taking it into the season, just building confidence and momentum.”
