The Miami Dolphins added a slot cornerback Wednesday, agreeing to terms with ex-Lions CB Justin Coleman on a one-year deal, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.

 

Coleman has spent two years each with the Patriots, Seahawks and Lions since entering the league in 2015. He has 4 career interceptions.

Dolphins add CB Justin Coleman on a 1-year deal

Fantasy slant: Coleman will provide depth at slot corner for the Miami Dolphins. It's also another former New England Patriot relationship renewed with Coleman’s arrival — Brian Flores was coaching safeties and linebackers when Coleman was with the team from 2015 to 2016. Miami should pray that starting slot corner Nik Needham stays healthy all season. Coleman has been among the league’s worst inside corners over the last two seasons. Since 2019 Coleman has allowed a 69.4% catch rate (157 targets) and 12 receiving touchdowns. If Coleman is pressed into a starting role in 2021, the mantra will be “start slot receivers in fantasy football against Miami.” — Derek Brown
