Punter Brandon Fields restructures his contract to create $1M cap space for #Dolphins

Fields was due $7.18 million in the final two years of his contract. He was the NFL’s second-highest paid punter coming into the 2015 season, which is why the Dolphins planned to cut the former Michigan State standout if he didn’t agree to a new deal.
