The Miami Dolphins made a roster move on Monday, adding some fresh talent to their squad. The team announced the signing of DJ Herman, a versatile player who will be listed as a fullback—a shift from his college days as a linebacker at San Diego State.
Herman first caught the Dolphins' eye during their rookie minicamp, where he impressed on a tryout basis. After going undrafted earlier this year, the 49-game college veteran brings a solid track record: 56 tackles and a tackle for loss, plus extensive special teams experience. That special teams background could be a key asset as he competes for a roster spot.
Interestingly, the Dolphins currently have no other fullbacks on their roster, giving Herman a clear path to make an impact. For a player with his linebacker-to-fullback transition, this is a golden opportunity to carve out a niche in Miami’s offense and special teams units. Fans will be watching closely as training camp approaches to see if he can turn this signing into a permanent role.
