Jevón Holland thinks the Miami Dolphins are phasing him out and, according to the safety, the team’s social media posts say it all.
“Transparently, seeing the Dolphins post things like the Valentine’s Day stuff or like any kind of edit and things like that. You can see guys that may not be here next year or may be somewhere else are just not in it,” Holland said this week on his Breakin’ House Rules podcast. “I’m following them on Instagram, right? And I’m not in none of this [expletive] no more. I’m like, OK, they’ve kinda moved on.
“I get it. I understand the decision to do that because I would do the same if I was in the same position. But from my perspective, I’m just watching it like — I get it, but like, OK, this is the effects of being a free agent. Your team, or what was your team, starts to phase you out, in a way.”
On Valentine’s Day, the Dolphins shared a post on Instagram that featured images of Jaylen Waddle, Zach Sieler, Calais Campbell, Jalen Ramsey, Tua Tagovailoa, Jonnu Smith, Jordyn Brooks, De’Von Achane, Aaron Brewer, Chop Robinson, Jaylen Wright, and Jason Sanders. The only player on that list not under contract for the 2025 season is Campbell.
Holland, who turns 25 in March, is set to become a free agent in a few weeks and early indications are that Miami intends to let the 2021 second-round pick hit the market.
Do the Dolphins social media managers already know that Holland will be in another jersey next month? Or were they simply playing it safe with memes that favor players they know aren’t heading anywhere any time soon?
The answer is almost certainly the latter.
But Holland’s thoughts about the team phasing him out certainly suggest he hasn’t heard much to make him think the Dolphins are working to get him re-signed.
