The Miami Dolphins added some much needed depth to their tight end group this offseason by signing free agent Pharaoh Brown. Known for his blocking abilities, the Dolphins will be Brown’s eight team since he entered the league in 2017.
Meeting with the Dolphins’ media for the first time, the 30-year-old tight end was asked why he chose to sign with the Dolphins and his honest was brutally honest.
“Sometimes beggars can’t be choosers,” he said before bursting into laughter.
The Dolphins signed Brown to a one-year deal worth up to $1.35 million, including a $20,000 signing bonus and $20,000 guaranteed, according to Spotrac. He fills the void left by Durham Smythe.
The 30-year-old had his best season in 2023 with the Patriots, posting 13 receptions for 208 yards and a touchdown.
The Dolphins needed a blocking tight end, with Jonnu Smith serving as their top receiving threat. However, Brown will have to compete with Julian Hill, another blocking tight end, for a roster spot.
