Gavin Escobar: Let go by Miami

Escobar was released by the Dolphins on Monday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Escobar re-signed with Miami after failing to make the 53-man roster, but he'll now return to the open market with the Dolphins needing to open up a roster spot for the signing of center Travis Swanson. Miami has just three healthy tight ends on the roster, with Mike Gesicki operating as the top pass-catching option within the unit.
