• Glenn’s base salaries in his new contract break down to: $3M (2016), $9M (2017), $9.25M (2018), $7.25M (2019), and $7.5M (2020). (Mike Rodak)

Dolphins

• The Miami Dolphins announced Saturday that they have signed sixth-round picks WR Jakeem Grant and CB Jordan Lucas to four-year contracts.

Jets

• Rich Cimini could see the Jets’ standoff with free agent QB Ryan Fitzpatrick lasting until July, and the start of training camp.
• Even if Fitzpatrick elects to skip voluntary workouts, it still benefits the Jets in that there would be more reps available for the other quarterbacks.
• The next key date worth keeping an eye on, according to Cimini, is June 14, which is the start of mandatory minicamp.

Patriots

• Mike Reiss of ESPN writes that the Patriots’ decision to not draft an offensive tackle is probably good news for Marcus Cannon and LaAdrian Waddle.
• Both Cannon and Waddle could end up completing to be the team’s swing-tackle in 2016.
