Lamm Ready for 'Last Ride'

Veteran offensive lineman Kendall Lamm suggested he would be making the 2024 season his last in the NFL

After his signing to return to the Miami Dolphins in 2024, tackle Kendall Lamm seemed to indicate this would be his last NFL season.

As the Dolphins do pretty much every time they sign a player in the offseason, they had Lamm record a message for the fans, but this was one different.

For one thing, Lamm did not sign his contract at the Baptist Health Training Complex like almost every player; he did it while at his home in Charlotte, North Carolina.

For another, Lamm seemed to take advantage of the occasion to reveal the 2024 season would be his last in the NFL.

"I watched a lot of videos of people signing their contracts down in Miami that always fits them," Lamm said. "I'm a very simple man. I watched them go out on the beautiful deck out there (at the practice facility) and say Miami Dolphins welcome, blah, blah, blah. I'm here in Charlotte, North Carolina. This (contract) will be signed, sealed, delivered back to Miami. And I get to step out on my beautiful back porch to the beautiful weather, beautiful flowers, beautiful trees.

"I'm a simple man. So I can tell you I'm very, very appreciative of this. This will be the last ride for me. To play in Miami, play with good people, good organization, great fans, it's amazing to me to close this football chapter the right way. So Miami Dolphins, thank you so much. I"m blessed, excited for 10 years. Let's close this the right way."

LAMM'S TIME WITH MIAMI

The 2024 season will be Lamm's third with the Dolphins, the second full one, after he first joined the team late in the 2022 season.

Before that, Lamm spent time with the Houston Texans, Cleveland Browns and Tennessee Titans.

He started eight games for Miami last season, subbing for both Terron Armstead at left tackle and Austin Jackson at right tackle.

Lamm will turn 32 in June.
