The Las Vegas Raiders are making waves in free agency with a reported four-year, $110 million deal for Dolphins Pro Bowl defensive tackle Christian Wilkins. Despite a standout 2023 season, the Dolphins chose not to franchise tag Wilkins, who recorded career highs in sacks, QB pressures, and QB hits.

The 28-year-old’s addition strengthens the Raiders’ defensive line alongside standout Maxx Crosby. Wilkins’ durability, with 51 consecutive starts, adds to the appeal for Las Vegas. Meanwhile, Miami faces a significant challenge in replacing Wilkins, who was not only a key player but also a respected leader in the locker room.
