Joining division rival Butler (thigh) and the Dolphins came to terms Wednesday on a two-year contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Head coach Brian Flores has poached a number of his former Patriots players since joining Miami, and Butler becomes the latest to join the list. The soon-to-be 27-year-old proved himself as a reliable rotational pass rusher in New England, and though he doesn't thrive against the run, he's capable of bolstering the interior of the defensive line when needed. He dealt with a thigh injury late in 2020, but it doesn't appear that his offseason availability will be affected.

Thigh injury arises Week 17 Butler (thigh) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jets, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

Impact Depth along the interior defensive line will be depleted as long as Butler is unavailable after he exited in the fourth quarter with four tackles and a sack to his ledger. Butler has now registered four sacks since Week 12, but Akeem Spence may have to step into a more integral role at defensive tackle if the 26-year-old proves unable to return.

JANUARY 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Third sack in four games Butler made four tackles (two solo) and a sack in Sunday's 22-12 loss to the Dolphins.

Impact Butler rang up six sacks last season, but he started the 2020 season on a brutal cold streak. Through the first 10 games, Butler failed to post a sack. He has turned it around of late, posting three sacks over the last four games, adding 15 tackles in that stretch. Butler will look to finish on a high note with games against the Bills and the Jets to close out the season.

Cleared for Week 13 Butler (shoulder) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.
