The Miami Dolphins are busy in the first hour of the 2026 NFL league year. As free agency has begun, the team announced their trade of safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, the release of linebacker Bradley Chubb, and the re-signing of cornerback A.J. Green III. NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero added another move for the Dolphins as the team agreed to terms with cornerback Darrell Baker.

Originally signed as an undrafted free agent by the Arizona Cardinals in 2022, Baker was cut at the end of the preseason in his

He spent two seasons in Indianapolis before being claimed off waivers by the Tennessee Titans at the end of the 2024 preseason. He then spent the last two years with the Titans.
He has appeared in 51 games, starting 25 of them, over his career, recording 130 tackles, one fumble recovery, and 19 passes defensed.
What are the contract details?
According to Pelissero, Baker agreed to a one-year contract with Miami.
Monetary details were not reported.
