Dolphins Make Official Their 2026 Undrafted Rookie Class

With the start of the Miami Dolphins rookie minicamp Friday, the team officially announced its 2026 undrafted free agent class.

It featured one new name beyond those who had been reported the weekend of the draft, that being defensive lineman Khalil Sanders from Kentucky.

The Dolphins ended up signing 11 UDFAs, giving them 90 players on the roster, though rookie fifth-round pick Seydou Traore has a roster exemption as a member of the International Player Pathway Program and therefore doesn't count against the limit.

The Dolphins entered the draft with 73 players, added 13 draft picks before signing the UDFA class.

Because of Traore, the Dolphins will be allowed to carry 91 players throughout the offseason and training camp.

Here's a rundown from Miami Dolphins On SI contributor Zack Duarte on each of the UDFAs.

BREAKING DOWN THE 2026 DOLPHINS UDFAs

QB Mark Gronowski, Iowa — Gronowski spent some time at South Dakota State before finishing up at Iowa, and was the 2023 winner of the Walter Payton Award as the most outstanding offensive player in the FCS ranks.

RB Le’Veon Moss, Texas A&M — Moss was teammates with De'Von Achane in 2022 and was a second-team All-SEC selection in 2024 when he scored 10 touchdowns, though he sustained a late-season knee injury that slowed him last season and hurt his draft stock.

S Louis Moore, Indiana — Moore is an overaged prospect having spent three seasons at Navarro Community College in Texas before a four-year career in the FBS ranks between Indiana (2022-23, 2025) and Mississippi (2024). Moore had six interceptions for the national champion Indiana Hoosiers last season.

WR Donaven McCulley, Michigan — McCulley began his collegiate career as a quarterback at Indiana in 2021, but left for Michigan as a graduate transfer last year. He caught 39 passes for 588 yards and three touchdowns last year.

DT Rene Konga, Louisville — Konga spent two seasons at Louisville after coming over from Rutgers and earned second-team All-ACC honors in 2025. What stands out about him, though, was his eye-opening Relative Athletic Score (RAS).

IOL Jim Bonifas, Iowa State — Bonifas played 37 games with 25 starts in five seasons with the Cyclones.

EDGE Mason Reiger, Wisconsin — Reiger (pronounced Rye-GUR) spent five seasons at Louisville before moving on to Wisconsin, where he had seven sacks and three forced fumbles in 2025 before earning Defensive MVP honors at the East-West Shrine Game.

T Kevin Cline, Boston College — Cline spent six seasons at Boston College, including all four (2020-23) where Jeff Hafley was the head coach. He played 44 career games with 14 starts.

RB Anthony Hankerson, Oregon State — Hankerson played two seasons at Colorado before two more at Oregon State, where he became just the sixth player in program history to record multiple 1,000-yard rushing seasons.

EDGE Rodney McGraw, Western Michigan — McGraw is yet another former Louisville player, though he also spent two seasons at Penn State. He finished last season with 42 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss, and seven sacks.

DL Khalil Saunders, Kentucky — Saunders spent five seasons at Kentucky, making him a rarity in this day and age of the transfer portal. He appeared in 51 career games with 12 starts in five seasons with the Wildcats, recording 77 tackles (36 solo), 4.5 sacks, 12.0 tackles for loss and nine quarterback hurries.
