Day three of the Miami Dolphins’ 2023 training camp is here. We keep you updated with the latest.
We are on to day three of the Miami Dolphins’ 2023 training camp. The biggest news coming out of yesterday’s practice was the injury to All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey, who will undergo surgery Friday afternoon to repair his meniscus. The injury could keep Ramsey out of action for most of the year, depending on the severity of the injury and the repair the doctors have to make. The cornerback group, a strength for Miami entering camp, will be under the spotlight on Friday as the search for a replacement for Ramsey begins.
Friday is still a media-only workout for the team. The first public workout in front of the fans will come on Sunday.
Also, as we noted yesterday, the X/Twitter list embeds are still broken, meaning we cannot insert our coverage list as we have in years past. Instead, we are manually updating the article below and are looking for a new way to make this a little more streamlined.
Make sure you join in the conversation about everything happening in the comments below.

Dolphins defense worked on their pressures and blitzes at Friday’s third practice of training camp, and the pass rush was all over the QBs. Double-digit sacks for team, led by four from Christian Wilkins, three from Duke Riley. Wilkins was CHIRPING.

Miami Dolphins Camp Practice 3
— Joe Schad (@schadjoe) July 28, 2023
Cam Smith broke up a long pass intended for Daewood Davis from Tua in 1-on-1
Kader Kohou broke up long pass to Jaylen Waddle from Tua in 1-on-1
Christian Wilkins had would-be sack that negated nice Cedrick Wilson sideline grab from Tua
Raekwon Davis and Christian Wilkins have been very disruptive and vocal
— Joe Schad (@schadjoe) July 28, 2023
New OL coach Butch Barry is very intense, emotional and demanding
Day 3 of Dolphins training camp — Bradley Chubb gets the orange jersey
— Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) July 28, 2023
Lot of Atlanta rap through the speakers today
Tua was off on several deep balls during 1-on-1 drills. Receivers consistently got separation, Tua overthrew
— Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) July 28, 2023
He did drop a couple in the bucket to Erik Ezukanma and Jaylen Waddle — although Kader Kohou knocked the ball out Waddle’s hands at the last second
Bradley Chubb could mess around and do something we’ve never seen here — get back to back orange jerseys.
— Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) July 28, 2023
Lived in the backfield during team drills. Defense set the tone early on at practice
Still no Brandon Jones or Trill Williams during team drills, although both players were at practice.
— Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) July 28, 2023
Duke Riley had 2-3 sacks, couple of them he was completely untouched.
— Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) July 28, 2023
Whether it was blown assignments or coverage sacks, Dolphins front seven won the day
Offense looked a little out of sync
I have officially lost count of sacks for the Dolphins defense today but it’s at least 12. Possibly more.
— Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) July 28, 2023
Important to note that majority have been coverage sacks
since we can’t live tweet, I keep an ongoing thread during practice. my thoughts are happening in real time
— Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) July 28, 2023
Dolphins defense is thoroughly dominating today. There’s nothing open downfield.
Bradley Chubb wore the orange jersey at Dolphins’ Friday practice and had another fine day.
— David Furones (@DavidFurones_) July 28, 2023
Dolphins practice just ended. Team worked inside because of weather and it was probably the most defensive-dominanted training camp practice I’ve seen entering Year 3 on the beat. About a dozen sacks and not much working for the offense.
— Daniel Oyefusi (@DanielOyefusi) July 28, 2023
It’s just one day, though.
Sacks are subjective in practice but we counted in the neighborhood of 12+ sacks today. Christian Wilkins was yapping up a storm with trash talk.
— Hal Habib (@gunnerhal) July 28, 2023
It was a good day for young Cam Smith and Kader Kohou. A lot of the would-be sacks were the result of coverage sacks.
— Daniel Oyefusi (@DanielOyefusi) July 28, 2023
We had a DOZEN sacks today.
— Omar Kelly (@OmarKelly) July 28, 2023
Dolphins defense was talking mad sh!t all practice.
Offense never responded.
Christian Wilkins had one play where he bull-rushed Austin Jackson into Tua Tagovailoa’s throwing motion on an incomplete pass. He was dominating, and let the offense hear it. Loudly. https://t.co/jxe0gg29UX

Dolphins practice attendance
— Daniel Oyefusi (@DanielOyefusi) July 28, 2023
• No Jalen Ramsey, as expected
•Jaelan Phillips, Keion Crossen and Freddie Swain remain sidelined
• Brandon Jones and Trill Williams were back. No team drills, though.
• PUP guys Terron Armstead and Isaiah Wynn continued to work on the side
Practice No. 3 was moved inside due to lightning. I’ll recap it all on the pod, but the notes are pretty clear cut - the defense was dominant as I’ve ever seen, particularly getting after the quarterbacks.
— Travis Wingfield (@WingfieldNFL) July 28, 2023
The entire Dolphins defensive front had its way but Christian Wilkins, Zach Sieler and Bradley Chubb led the effort.
— Daniel Oyefusi (@DanielOyefusi) July 28, 2023
On multiple occasions, Wilkins had some profanity-laced words for the offensive sideline.

Duke Riley smiles but takes the humble route when asked about the energy on a day like this for the defense:
— Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) July 28, 2023
“We’re holding the offense to a higher standard just like they’re hold us to a higher standard.”
Duke Riley on young corners Kader Kohou and Cam Smith: “They both have really great footwork and ball skills. They have bright futures. And they are sponges, asking questions.” pic.twitter.com/25XEomC3To

Duke Riley says Vic Fangio is all about details and he wants students of the game who anticipate. “He’s like a guru,” Riley said.

Thread of some notes I jotted down:
— Daniel Oyefusi (@DanielOyefusi) July 28, 2023
Team had WR/DB 1-on-1s for the first time.
• Jevon Holland had a nice pass breakup on a short out-breaking route to Braxton Berrios
• Cam Smith had a breakup on a pass from Tua to Daewood Davis
More 1-on-1s
— Daniel Oyefusi (@DanielOyefusi) July 28, 2023
• Tua found Cedrick Wilson on a deep post w/ Verone McKinley in coverage
• McDaniel motioned for DPI on Kohou, making contact on a short pass from Tua to Waddle
• Thompson found Chris Coleman on a corner route with Bryce Thompson in coverage
Noah Igbinoghene says he’s focused on how he can get better and focused on his technique. He’s not worried about 1st, 2nd, 3rd string. Says he does realize he has a different kind of opportunity now. pic.twitter.com/zzI2vqhaos
— Joe Schad (@schadjoe) July 28, 2023
I asked Noah what he likes about Vic Fangio’s scheme and he emphasized the variety of ways the CB play with their technique. Not just strictly press-man coverage but off man, zone, etc. https://t.co/e3206CciMs
— Daniel Oyefusi (@DanielOyefusi) July 28, 2023
Dolphins WR Cedrick Wilson Jr. says he has never asked for a trade, says nothing has been communicated to him about Dolphins, GM Chris Grier seeking to trade him.

This is what Duke Riley had to say about former Georgia Bulldog Channing Tindall:
— Meadow Barrow (@MeadowBarrow) July 28, 2023
“He’s definitely getting better. He’s learning and he’s picking up on things better. He’s coming to work every day trying to get better.”
Cedrick Wilson says he’s been locked into the play book so he can play faster in 2023. pic.twitter.com/4hwsaOXjwy

Bradley Chubb said he feels “like another coach” on the field playing in Vic Fangio’s defense
— Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) July 28, 2023
That’s going to be critical without Ramsey on the field
Bradley Chubb: Vic Fangio is mastermind. pic.twitter.com/qCOJs6Wuuw
— Joe Schad (@schadjoe) July 28, 2023
Bradley Chubb disagrees with Sean Payton’s characterization of the Broncos. “I’ve got nothing bad to say about Coach Hackett.”
— Adam Beasley (@AdamHBeasley) July 28, 2023
Bradley Chubb said he feels right at home in Vic Fangio’s defense after also playing in it in Denver. He says probably about 90-95 percent of the defense’s principles from the Broncos carry over.
— David Furones (@DavidFurones_) July 28, 2023
Bradley Chubb says Duke Riley performed his new song in front of his teammates this morning ... said he loved it.
— Alain Poupart (@PoupartNFL) July 28, 2023
Zach Sieler says his agent is working with the Dolphins to get something done contract-wise. Declines to say if sitting out spring drills was contract or injury related. But says he feels great. pic.twitter.com/s6ivG1XThh
