Riley Patterson News: Joins active roster for Week 1

The Dolphins have elevated Patterson to the active roster from the practice squad Saturday, priming him to start Sunday's regular-season opener on the road against the Colts.

Patterson has a clear path to starting at least the first four games of the 2025 campaign for Miami with Jason Sanders (hip) beginning the year on IR. Patterson will be eligible to be elevated from the practice squad a maximum of three times, after which point the team would have to ink him to the 53-man roster. Patterson suited up for action with the Falcons, Browns and Jets last season.
