Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Long broke out for 113 tackles (64 solo), one sack, one pass breakup and one forced fumble in his inaugural season with the Dolphins, the first 100-tackle mark of his career. To see Long not only emerge as a truly reliable run stopper, but also put injury concerns behind him while suiting up for a career-best 16 regular-season games, is encouraging for his long-term prospects with the Dolphins. An every-down role likely awaits the 27-year-old, and he could need to add to his stop total with Christian Wilkins having moved on to the Raiders.
