Upon the release of the Wells Report, Dolphins owner Stephen Ross asked for time to “review it in detail before responding relative to the findings.”

And now, with the report having been out for several hours, all eyes are on the team, league and prominent names in the report for the next chapters in this saga.

According to Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald, the Dolphins are currently “in meetings” as they weigh how to next respond to the Wells Report.

Given that the report was the result of an independent investigation commissioned by the NFL, and given that Wells Report investigators conducted more than 100 interviews, it’s certainly possible some of what was released Friday came as a surprise to Miami. The question now is how the Dolphins proceed from here.
