Sitton, 32, is a former fourth-round pick of the Packers back in 2008. He played eight years for the Packers before they released at the start of the 2016 season.
Sitton later signed a three-year deal with the Bears for the 2016 season and spent two years in Chicago before they declined his option last year. The Dolphins later signed him to a two-year, $13.5 million contract before releasing him with a failed physical last month.
In 2018, Sitton appeared in one game for the Dolphins before landing on injured reserve due to a torn rotator cuff.
We had him featured in our Top 50 Available Free Agents list.
