Dolphins Release DE Nate Orchard

According to Barry Jackson, the Dolphins are releasing DE Nate Orchard on Tuesday.

This comes shortly after the news that the Dolphins have claimed LB James Crawford off of waivers from the Packers. 

Orchard, 26, is a former second-round pick of the Browns back in 2015. He was in the final year of his four-year, $4.466 million contract when the Browns elected to cut him loose coming out of the preseason last year. 

Orchard had a brief stint with the Bills before signing on with the Chiefs. Unfortunately, Kansas City waived him a month later and he eventually signed on with the Seahawks in April. After he was released by Seattle, Orchard signed on with the Dolphins in May. 

In 2018, Orchard appeared in four games for the Bills and Chiefs and recorded four tackles, no sacks and a pass defense.
