Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald is reporting the Dolphins are going to cut Isaiah Wilson after efforts to help him have failed. The Dolphins officially acquired Wilson via trade on March 17th the first day of the new league year and are releasing him roughly 72 hours later on March 20. Per the Beasley report, Wilson has refused team efforts to get his life on track.

Per the Miami Herald: “Wilson showed up late for his physical, late for his team orientation and skipped two optional workouts that he had committed to attend, the source said.”

Releasing Wilson will cost Miami nothing salary cap wise. And the Titans will keep Miami’s 7th round pick in the 2021 draft and the Dolphins will keep the Titans 7th round pick in the 2022 draft

Wilson was a 1st round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft by the Tennesse Titans but had numerous off-the-field issues last season. On September 11th, 2020 Wilson was arrested for a DUI in Nashville, TN. The arrest report stated that Wilson was traveling on Charlotte Avenue at a high rate of speed. According to a witness, a vehicle that was later identified as Wilson’s was doing “donuts” at the intersection of 25th Avenue N. and Charlotte Avenue. Wilson lost control of his vehicle and struck a concrete wall. Also during Training Camp, Tennessee State University police broke up an off-campus party that Wilson had attended. In their report, the police documented that Wilson went to the second-floor balcony, where he appeared to briefly consider jumping. He received a trespass warning. On December 5th, 2020 the Titans suspended Wilson for their Week 13 game for violating team rules. He finished the 2020 season playing only in one game.

There were several social media posts in the last few days from Wilson that didn’t put him in the best light and were a red flag that he hadn’t learned from his rocky rookie season in the NFL in that being a professional off the field is as important as being a professional on the field.

Wilson is a gifted young athlete but his off the field behavior shows a lack of maturity and now has most likely ended his NFL career after just one season in which he played in one game.
