Dolphins' Bradley Chubb Returns to Practice After Knee Injury

Miami Dolphins edge rusher Bradley Chubb is making a strong return to form following a significant knee injury that sidelined him for the entire 2024 season. During recent organized team activities (OTAs), Chubb demonstrated impressive pass-rushing moves and competitive fire, showing he is about 95-99% recovered and confident about being fully healthy by training camp in July. Despite missing last season, Chubb accepted a substantial pay cut to remain with the Dolphins, emphasizing his commitment to the team and eagerness to lead a defense bolstered by teammates Jaelan Phillips and Chop Robinson. Head coach Mike McDaniel confirmed that Chubb is participating in most OTA activities, alongside Phillips, as both recover from serious injuries. Chubb’s return is highly anticipated given his prior impact, including an 11-sack 2023 season before the injury, and his presence is seen as crucial for improving a Dolphins defense that struggled with pass rushing last year. The team and Chubb himself express optimism about his ability to contribute fully and lead by example in the upcoming season.
