Dolphins Summer Transactions Breakdown

In this story:
It's been about two and a half weeks since the Miami Dolphins started training camp in full swing, and already the team has made 26 roster transactions.
Included have been the usual comings and goings from the 90-man roster and players going and coming off various injury lists, with the one notable exception being the contract extension signed by quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (because his contract was a restructure and not an extension, Tyreek Hill's new deal doesn't count as a transaction).
For educational purposes, players on active injury lists such as PUP or non-football injury could be activated anytime they were cleared to start practicing. Also note that players who began training camp on PUP or NFI cannot go back on the list once they are removed from it. Lastly, those players on active/PUP or active/NFI do count against the roster limit.
When the Dolphins have make their roster moves to get down to 53 on August 27, those still on PUP will have to be transferred to the active roster or moved to reserve/PUP, which will sideline them for the first four games of the regular season.
That said (or written), and so all Dolphins fans are up to speed with all the moves the Dolphins have made, here's the complete rundown of all the transactions since rookies reported to training camp July 16.
