Matt Darr Signs With Miami Dolphins
By Zach Ragan
Miami is quickly becoming a haven for former Tennessee Vols.
On Saturday, after going undrafted in the 2015 NFL Draft, former Vols punter Matt Darr signed with the Miami Dolphins.

That makes four former Vols that now call Miami home.

Offensive linemen Dallas Thomas, Ja’Wuan James and Jacques McClendon are also on the Dolphins’ roster.
Darr had a solid senior season at UT, setting a career high with a 42.2 average. He had 21 punts that went more than 50 yards, including a long of 61 yards.
As with any undrafted free agent, there’s no guarantee that Darr will win a roster spot with the Dolphins. But we saw during his senior season that he’s a capable punter and it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he’s on Miami’s roster this fall.
