Dolphins Waive DB Mark Gilbert From IR With Settlement

Gilbert, 26, signed with the Steelers as an undrafted free agent out of Duke following the 2021 NFL Draft. He was waived coming out of the preseason and re-signed to the practice squad. 

The Lions signed Gilbert off Pittsburgh’s practice squad and he finished out the 2021 season in Detroit. The Lions re-signed him as an exclusive rights free agent but waived him coming out of the preseason. He returned to the Steelers practice squad. 

From there, Gilbert spent the 2022 season on and off the Steelers’ practice squad. The Dolphins signed him to a contract earlier this month. 

In 2021, Gilbert played eight games for the Lions and recorded three tackles, one pass deflection, and one forced fumble.
