What happened: Liam Anderson, Clelin Ferrell, Amari Gainer, Jordan Miller, Will Sheppard, Jaylin Simpson, Mazi Smith and Tre Watson join the practice squad. Gronowski signed with Miami as an undrafted free agent in May.
Why it matters: The moves add depth across every level of the defense while retaining receiving and tight end options. Practice-squad players can be elevated as Miami manages its roster entering the 2026 season.
By the numbers: 8 additions: 6 defensive players and 2 offensive players.
What to watch: Miami's next transaction report will show whether any of the new additions are elevated for game day.
