The Miami Dolphins announced Tuesday that they’ve waived RT Jason Fox.
We have waived tackle Jason Fox.
— Miami Dolphins (@MiamiDolphins) January 12, 2016
Fox, 27, signed a two-year, $2.5 million contract with the Dolphins last year, but his 2015 season was largely disappointing. He made a base salary of $770,000 this season and was set to make another $1.28 million in 2016.
According to OverTheCap.com, cutting white would free up $1,380,000 in cap space while also creating $162,500 in dead money.
In 2015, Fox appeared in 15 games for the Dolphins and was rated by Pro Football Focus as the No. 73 tackle out of 76 qualifying players.

It could have freed up a dollar and this would have been a good move. Fox couldn’t block a pee-wee defensive end.
They save 1.3 mill in cap space and about 4-5 sacks a game.
