Signed a one-year contract with the Dolphins in March of 2026.
Set to join Miami
Uche is slated to sign a one-year deal with the Dolphins, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
Uche was a strong depth piece for the Eagles, playing defensive snaps in nine regular-season games in 2025. The strongside linebacker will bring both defensive and special-teams value to a depleted Dolphins linebacker room as he returns to the AFC East. Uche was traded from the Patriots to the Chiefs in late October 2024 and now will get to face the team that selected him in the second round of the 2020 Draft twice per year.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Uche logged just 15 tackles to go along with three sacks in 15 regular-season games in 2023, but the 2020 second-rounder is among the players who could see an increased role following the August trade of Matthew Judon. Uche racked up 11.5 sacks in 2022, so a return to IDP utility is plausible for the Michigan product while working under new defensive coordinator DeMarcus Covington.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be among best FA bargains
Daniel Popper of The Athletic believes Uche's contract with the Eagles could be among the best bargains in the 2025 free-agent class.
ANALYSIS
Uche is owed just $1.92 million in cash in 2025 on his one-year deal. The pass rusher had 11.5 sacks with the Patriots in 2022 but has posted only 5.0 sacks in 28 appearances across the two subsequent seasons. If Uche can carve out a role in Philadelphia's pass rushing rotation, he could outproduce his modest contract substantially while frequently working 1-on-1 as Jalen Carter draws double teams on the interior.
