The Splash Zone 7/9/22: How Good Is The Dolphins Secondary?

The Miami Dolphins have run a blitz heavy defense the past couple of seasons thanks in large part to their secondary. Xavien Howard and Bryon Jones are one of the best cornerback tandems in the league and Nik Needham has developed into one of the better nickelbacks. At safety, Jevon Holland looks to be a superstar in the making after a tremendous rookie season while Brandon Jones developed into a great blitzer last season, but could use some work on his pass defense. The Dolphins secondary is arguably their best unit on either side of the ball and you could argue that they have the best secondary in the league. We’ll just have to see how they do this season without Brian Flores’ influence on the defense.
