Running back Le'Veon Moss will no longer be vying for a spot on the Dolphins' roster.
The team placed Moss on the reserve/retired list on Tuesday. Moss signed with the team after going undrafted out of Texas A&M last month.
quote:
Moss played in 32 games over four seasons with the Aggies and ran 321 times for 1,767 yards and 22 touchdowns. He also caught 24 passes for 236 yards.

Squirrel White is stepping away from football almost as quickly as he entered the NFL.
The former Chicago Bears rookie, 22, retired less than three weeks after signing with the franchise as an undrafted free agent, ending his professional career just 16 days after joining the team.
The Bears placed White on the reserve/retired list on Monday, May 11, according to the team's website.
The Alabama native signed with the Bears shortly after the 2026 NFL Draft following a college career split between the Tennessee and Florida State.
After transferring to Florida State, he played in 10 games and caught five passes for 52 yards, according to the team's website.
Just days before his retirement became official, ESPN Bears reporter Courtney Cronin reported that she witnessed White leave the practice field during rookie minicamp.
It sucks that they can't realize their dream of playing pro football, but at least they were able to make some decent money. That's probably one of the few benefits of NIL.

Are these medical retirements?
Did the schools miss some sort of major medical issue?

I think with NIL you’re going to see more of this. Make millions in college, get a degree and set yourself up for life financially by the time you’re 21-22? Easy decision

Moss had multiple knee injuries at A&M

Sometimes it be like that. Wish them well in their future careers.

Moss ran tough, sucks to see. He could’ve been great.

So they can try again next year with the same team from what I read.
This allows the team to keep their rights for a certain time.
Any speculation as to whether they have a realistic shot of making it to the roster IF the physical issues improve?

Got to be medical for Moss. Very much injury prone.

Who knew I retired from football after my freshman year in college.

Squirrel White transferred to FSU for five catches and 52 yards. Damn.

There’s life after college football and NFL for athletes.
They’ve got talent.

Tough blow and a reality for some of these players, especially RBs
That Moss kid was really good. If healthy I could have seen him being a starting RB in the league
