14 years into his NFL career, Miami Dolphins punter Thomas Morstead is accustomed to life as a professional football player.
The former SMU Mustang spent 12 seasons as a member of the New Orleans Saints, and his 2021 season was split between the New York Jets and Atlanta Falcons for seven games a piece. Still, last season, at 35 years old, he averaged 47.2 yards and 42 net yards per attempt.
Now, after signing a one-year deal this offseason worth $1.27 million, he’s coming to South Florida to play his home games at Hard Rock Stadium, where he once helped the Saints win a Super Bowl over the Indianapolis Colts as a rookie.
