The dolphins need to move on from this clown.  It was a mistake drafting him, as that position was not a major need at the time, and it's been downhill since.  He owes the Dolphins money so essentially would be playing for free; but they would probably have to rework his contract to make him "happy" and it's just not worth it.  Let him go to some other team and be a distraction while he repays the Dolphins the money he owes them.

^^^ Has the team announced he owes them the money? I have read they can but I don't think I've seen where they have stated they want it back and I'm not sure we will unless the team gets rid of him.

There is debate,Some say they'll owe him,others disagree....(The money in question is a bonus to be paid on the 5th day of training camp.)

The Dolphins are in fact required to pay Jordan a $1.69MM bonus on the fifth day of training camp, but Jordan also must repay his $3.35MM signing bonus to the team as a result of his multiple suspensions, according to Armando Salguero of The Miami Herald.

Taken from here...

So they owe him,but but he aint gonna see that money!  Cheesy

This is his last chance with Miami IMO.  I'd love to see him playing OLB.  He did pretty well against Gronk the one time Miami did that.  Anymore screw ups and it's see ya later Mr. Jordan.

With the scrutiny he is going to be under this year, he's going to fail a drug test before the year is up.  Even if it is unintentional.  He'll take some cold medicine or vitamin only to find out it's on the banned list and he's done.  He's not worth the $1.6 million.

The 1.6 milion is only good if he pays back the 3+ million so you can count that as gone.  He's been taking weekly tests since he got suspended so he knows what is OK. If he fails it's because he wanted to.

I saw on twitter Yesterday the NFL cleared Dion Jordan to practice with the Dolphins (reinstatement wise,His knee injury is the issue at the moment)

****Hijack****
I feel it might be worth mentioning at It was the guy most people thought the Dolphins were trading up for when we drafted Jordan.
I just saw this on Twitter
@RapSheet: #Eagles OT Lane Johnson is facing a 10-game PED suspension, source said (as @DarrenDegaetano reported). He's appealing. Would be a bad blow

End hijack
