The team had to forfeit its first-round draft pick in 2023 and a third-round pick in 2024.<\/p>\n<p class>The punishment came after former Dolphins head coach Brian Flores, who filed a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/2022\/02\/01\/brian-flores-stephen-ross-dolphins-offered-100k-per-loss\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">discrimination lawsuit<\/a> against the NFL and three teams over alleged racist hiring practices, said Ross tried to get him to recruit &#8220;a prominent quarterback&#8221; who was under contract to another team during a meeting on Ross&#8217; yacht.<\/p>\n<p class>Flores said he refused and left the boat before the player arrived. The NFL&#8217;s investigation identified the player as Brady. It was also determined the Dolphins spoke with Sean Payton when he was still working for the New Orleans Saints.<\/p>\n<p class>In April, <a href=\"https:\/\/profootballtalk.nbcsports.com\/2022\/04\/07\/tom-brady-was-very-close-to-officially-joining-the-dolphins-initially-as-an-owner\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Florio<\/a> reported Brady&#8217;s initial retirement announcement was part of a plan that would have seen him become a minority owner for the Dolphins. They would have moved to acquire Brady&#8217;s contractual rights as a player to make him their starting quarterback and acquire Payton from the Saints to be their head coach.<\/p>\n<p class>Per <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FOS\/status\/1512190693619515398?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1512190693619515398%7Ctwgr%5E42a9a3a0de4f250d6dd104dd8eec9a0cc7707f43%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&#038;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxsports.com%2Fstories%2Fnfl%2Fhow-tom-brady-almost-became-the-dolphins-minority-owner-and-qb\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Front Office Sports<\/a>, the plan was scrapped after Flores&#8217; class action lawsuit was filed.<\/p>\n<p class>The Dolphins do have questions at quarterback because of Tua Tagovailoa&#8217;s health. He has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/story\/_\/id\/35413187\/why-dolphins-qb-tua-tagovailoa-now-face-questions-concussions-future\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">suffered<\/a> two reported concussions this season, including one in Miami&#8217;s Week 16 loss to the Green Bay Packers that has kept him out for the past two games. The 24-year-old has already been ruled out of Sunday&#8217;s playoff game against the Buffalo Bills.<\/p>\n<p class>Brady can become a free agent this offseason. He has not yet indicated if he will return in 2023, but there certainly appears to be a relationship in place with several key decision-makers for the Dolphins that would make it a viable destination if he wants to keep playing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h5>????
