Inks deal with Miami
Michel signed a contract with the Dolphins on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran running back will bring depth to a backfield that already includes Chase Edmonds, Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed. Michel appeared in 17 games a season ago with the Rams, rushing for 845 yards and four scores while hauling in 21 passes for 128 yards and one touchdown.

The Niners don't have much cap space at first glance, but they can change that in a hurry this offseason, starting with Jimmy Garoppolo's presumed trade/release.

Kevin Payne is backing the Rams over the Bengals and also has a number of other wagers to consider, including some cross-sport props, to add some spice to your Super Bowl Sunday

2018
While injuries played a big part in Michel's poor 2020, the bigger issue was the emergence of Damien Harris. At his best, Michel is a tough runner who offers little in the passing game but can help keep the chains moving and get the job done at the goal line, though the goal line was Cam Newton's domain in New England last year. For 2021, the Patriots decided to move forward without Michel, trading him to the Rams in late August for conditional fifth- and sixth-round picks. A 2018 first-round pick himself, Michel obviously hasn't lived up to the billing but does now have a nice opportunity ahead in the unsettled Los Angeles backfield. Darrell Henderson still figures to enter Week 1 in the lead role, but his medical history is cause for concern, while the Rams' other running backs all have little-to-no NFL experience. As such, Michel could find himself in a lead role at some point this season, playing in what should be at least an above-average offense.
