  • Seahawks' Jerome Baker: Inks deal with Seattle

    The Seahawks signed Baker (wrist) to a one-year, $7 million deal Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Baker was released by the Dolphins with a failed injury designation earlier this month, and he's now found a new home in Seattle. The 2018 third-round pick dealt with a wrist injury that forced him to miss four games in 2023, but he was still productive when on the field, recording 78 total tackles, including 1.5 sacks, while also intercepting two passes. Baker is expected to be an integral part of the Seahawks' linebacker corps in 2024, as the team lost both Jordyn Brooks and Bobby Wagner in free agency.

    Baker (knee) was activated off injured reserve Saturday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports. Baker missed the Dolphins' last four games since suffering a knee injury in the team's Week 13 win over the Commanders, but he's returning to the field just in time for the playoffs, assuming he sheds his questionable designation ahead of Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. The 27-year-old linebacker has recorded 69 total tackles in 12 games this season, and he'll look to get back into game shape in Week 18 against the Bills as the Dolphins try to secure the AFC East crown.

  • Dolphins' Jerome Baker: Designated to return from IR

    Baker (knee) was designated to return from injured reserve by the Dolphins on Wednesday, Alain Poupart of SI.com reports. Baker suffered an MCL injury in Week 13 and has been unavailable since, but Wednesday's transaction opens a 21-day window for him to return to practice and potentially be added to the active roster. With the Dolphins a lock for the postseason, the linebacker could provide them with a massive boost to their defensive, especially with Jaelan Phillips (Achilles) and Bradley Chubb (knee) done for the season. It's possible that Baker could return as soon as Sunday's matchup with the Bills, but time will tell when he's ultimately able to return to the field.

  • Dolphins' Jerome Baker: Shifts to IR

    The Dolphins placed Baker (knee) on injured reserve Saturday. Baker was originally thought to be week-to-week after he suffered an MCL injury in Week 13, but it now seems as if his knee issue is worse than Miami originally thought. The 26-year-old had started all 12 of the Dolphins' games thus far, recording 69 total tackles and two interceptions. With Baker missing at least the next four games, Channing Tindall projects to see increased opportunities in Miami's linebacker corps.

    Baker notched 92 tackles (62 solo), 5.5 sacks, four pass breakups, one interception and one forced fumble across 16 appearances in 2021.

That said, he did end the 2021 campaign on a high note, with 26 tackles and 4.5 sacks in his last four appearances. The 25-year-old will attempt to bounce back under a new head couch during the 2022 season, after which the Dolphins could evaluate a potential 'out' in his contract.
