On the day before their final preseason game of 2024, the Miami Dolphins were up to more than 40 roster transactions since the day rookies reported to training camp.

Included have been the usual comings and goings from the 90-man roster and players going and coming off various injury lists, with the one notable exception being the contract extension signed by quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Because Tyreek Hill's new contract was a restructure and not an extension, his new deal doesn't count as a transaction.

For educational purposes, players on active injury lists, such as Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) or Non-Football Injuries (NFI), could be activated anytime the team clears them to start practicing. Also, note that players who began training camp on PUP or NFI cannot return to the list once they are removed. Lastly, those players on active/PUP or active/NFI do count against the roster limit.

When the Dolphins make their roster moves to reduce it to 53 on August 27th, those still on PUP will have to be transferred to the active roster or moved to reserve/PUP, which will sideline them for the first four games of the regular season.

That said (or written), and so all Dolphins fans are up to speed with all the Dolphins' moves, here's the complete rundown of all the transactions since rookies reported to training camp on July 16th.
