Last year the Miami Dolphins wanted former West Virginia quarterback Pat White so badly that they took him with the 44th overall pick in the draft. Now they don’t want him at all.
Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the Dolphins cut White today.
White was a great fit for the spread offense at West Virginia, but he never quite fit in Miami. There was talk that the team wanted him to move to wide receiver, and he indicated that he’d rather play baseball than play wide receiver.
We don’t know what’s next for White, but it’s hard to believe a player talented enough to be a high second-round pick just a year ago wouldn’t be able to catch on somewhere. Our pure speculation is that the Patriots could have some interest.
