The Miami Dolphins are addressing their lack of physicality, toughness, and aggression by bringing in new free agents with playoff-level intensity. These additions aim to help the team compete against heavyweights and excel in various situations including short-yardage plays and against playoff-caliber opponents.

Key players like center Aaron Brewer, safety Jordan Poyer, and tight end Jonnu Smith are emphasizing the importance of physicality and aggression in their game. The team is looking to shift its mentality under coach Mike McDaniel and defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver to become more competitive and assertive in the league.
