All across the NFL, teams continue to churn the bottom of their rosters, swapping out players as they end the offseason workout program and begin preparing for their respective training camps.  For the Miami Dolphins, that churn included yesterday's waiving of defensive back Anthony Gaitor and the signing of defensive back Kevin Fogg.

Fogg was in Miami this week as a tryout player during the team's mandatory minicamp.  He was teammates last year at Liberty with Dolphins' fourth round draft choice, cornerback Walt Aikens.  Fogg was named All-Big South Conference First Team last year, recording four interceptions, with one touchdown, seven pass breakups, and 44 tackles.  He also served as the primary punt and kick returner for the team, averaging 8.5 yards per punt return and 18.9 yards per kick return.

During his Pro Day, Fogg ran a 4.49 second 40-yard dash, had a vertical jump of 33-inches, and a broad jump of 10-feet, 4-inches.

Gaitor spent the 2011 through 2013 seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after they selected him in the seventh round of the 2011 NFL Draft.  He spent all of last year on injured reserve with a hamstring injury.
