QB Matt Moore Signs 2-Year, $8M Contract With Dolphins

NFL.com's Jeff Darlington reported Friday that quarterback Matt Moore has decided to stay in South Florida, inking a two-year contract worth $8 million with the Dolphins, according to a source close to the player. This comes hours after Miami re-signed wide receiver Brian Hartline on Thursday night.

Terms of Moore's new contract were not immediately known and the Dolphins have yet to announce the deal.

It's smart work by general manager Jeff Ireland. Moore widely was considered the top quarterback in a thin NFL free-agent market and likely would have been courted by multiple teams. Moore wants to be a starter, but he's comfortable with the Dolphins and close friends with second-year quarterback Ryan Tannehill.

Damn...I was hoping he might be a potential Steelers back up...oh well.

 

that's pretty good jack to hold a clipboard

 

Agree. He's a competent back up thoughts the competent ones should get paid $3-$4M
