Dolphins host All-ACC TE for top-30 NFL draft visit

After signing Ben Sims in free agency, re-signing Greg Dulcich and leaving Darren Waller unsigned on the open market, the Miami Dolphins don't exactly have the strongest tight end room in the league. At this point in the offseason, Dulcich, Sims, Jalin Conyers, Cole Turner and Zack Kuntz round out the position group for Miami, which should show why adding another tight end before Week 1 is a must. To find one, the Dolphins may have to turn to the 2026 NFL draft, and they're already looking at a potential draft pick, as Justin Joly is among the list of prospects taking a top-30 visit to the team's facilities.

Joly, 21, was a two-star recruit out of Iona Preparatory School in New Rochelle, New York, before playing two years at UConn and two more at NC State, where he earned All-ACC honors once. In 49 games between the two schools, Joly caught 166 passes for 1,978 yards and 15 touchdowns. At his Pro Day, he recorded a 30.

5-inch vertical jump and a 114-inch broad jump. Joly is expected to hear his name on Day 3 of the draft, and with the Dolphins having so many needs, he could be a great option for them in the fourth or fifth round.
