Dolphins add a cornerback depth piece in low-risk free agency move. Headlines clarify this is A.J. Green the defender, not the legendary receiver. Signing suggests Miami prioritizes secondary reinforcement ahead of training camp. Fans view this as forgettable roster housekeeping rather than meaningful upgrade. Green likely fills rotational cornerback role as camp competition material.

A.J. Green's one-year, $1.215M signing with the Miami Dolphins earns a **C- Contract Value Index (CVI)** — a deal that reflects realistic depth positioning for an aging receiver in the offseason market. At this price point, the Dolphins are treating Green as a veteran minimum-caliber depth piece rather than a featured weapon, which aligns with both his market value and their current 7-10 roster situation heading into the 2026 season. The one-year structure offers zero commitment risk and allows Miami flexibility to pivot if younger options emerge during training camp or through the waiver wire, but the microscopic AAV also signals the team's clear expectation: rotational snaps, special-teams contributions, or depth insurance — not starter reps. For a receiver of Green's pedigree, this is the lower end of what a veteran can command in free agency, and the modest investment reflects the gap between past production and present market. The CVI grade reflects fair mutual value — Miami gets an experienced body for pocket change, and Green retains employment without sacrificing long-term earning potential. In a preseason window where draft capital and depth acquisitions typically command these kinds of low-risk slots, this is a sensible, unremarkable addition that carries minimal downside but also minimal upside for a team still searching for consistency.
