The Miami Dolphins re-signed cornerback Kader Kohou on Friday, according to a league memo.
Kohou, 26, was tendered as a restricted free agent by the Dolphins in March, meaning that other teams were free to sign the cornerback to an offer sheet. But Miami didn't have to match any offer, because none came for Kohou. Now he's set to return to the Dolphins on a one-year deal.
The Ivory Coast-native signed with the Dolphins as an undrafted free agent in 2022 and in only three years he's quickly become one of the team's most tenured defensive players.
Kohou has played in 47 games in his three seasons with the Dolphins and started 38. He has three career interceptions, one sack, two forced fumbles, and 13 tackles for loss.
The Dolphins have tinkered some at cornerback this offseason, parting with veteran Kendall Fuller and adding former first-round pick Artie Burns to the roster. As of now, Kohou is likely to be the team's starting slot corner in 2025.
