Smith signed a two-year, $8.4 million deal in 2024, and is scheduled to make $4.8 million in 2025. He clearly feels his performance last season -- setting three different single-season tight end franchise records for the Dolphins with 88 receptions for 884 yards and eight touchdowns -- is deserving of a raise.

The only thing is, there hasn’t been much of an update on that side. Smith did, however, sit out of minicamp as he and agent Drew Rosenhaus seek a new contract. Rosenhaus recently called conversations with the Dolphin “still fluid” on WSVN 7’s Sports Xtra.
