Linebacker David Long Jr. and QB Skylar Thompson were among the Dolphins players who switched numbers

The Miami Dolphins revealed their 2024 jersey numbers, featuring several changes for returning Dolphins, and the new digits for free agent newcomers, and, of course, rookies.

Other returning members of the Dolphins 2023 who will make a change include cornerback Ethan Bonner and long snapper Blake Ferguson. Bonner was an undrafted free agent and practice squad member who was elevated to the roster in Week 15 last season. Number 9 will now revert back to offense after linebacker Melvin Ingram wore it last season. Ingram is again a free agent, and former team cornerbacks Kelvin Joseph and Noah Igbinoghene once wore 9. The two were actually traded for each other in a Dallas Cowboys deal last summer.

Cornerback Siran Neal retains his 33 now that Eli Apple is no longer in Miami, and free agent edge rusher Shaquil Barrett will return to the 58 he wore in Tampa Bay from 2019-2022. Connor Williams wore 58 last season for Miami, and the current free agent center’s football future is unknown at this point.

Free agent defensive tackle Teair Tart will replace Christian Wilkins numerically, wearing 94. Making a return to Miami, defensive tackle Benito Jones was an undrafted free agent for Miami in 2020 and played last for the Detroit Lions, wearing 94. He will again wear 95 for Miami as he did as a rookie.
