Adam Schefter reports that the Dolphins have reached an agreement on a deal with veteran DE Trey Flowers.
Flowers was a cap cut by the Lions back in March. He has a lot of experience in a similar defensive system to what Miami runs and should add depth to their defensive front if he’s healthy.
Flowers, 29, is a former fourth-round pick of the Patriots back in 2015. He played out the final year of his four-year, $2,838,932 contract with the Patriots in 2018 before agreeing to a five-year, $90 million contract with the Lions in 2019.
Flowers was set to make a base salary of $16 million in the final two years of the deal when the Lions released him.
In 2021, Flowers appeared in seven games for the Lions and recorded 24 tackles, 1.5 sacks, a forced fumble and a recovery.
