Joins active roster
Ingram was signed to the 53-man roster from the Dolphins' practice squad Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Ingram was elevated each of the last three weeks from the practice squad, seeing a regular role in Miami's linebacker corps, recording seven tackles (six solo) and 1.5 sacks in the process. With the team dealing with multiple injuries to the position, and most recently losing Andrew Van Ginkel (foot), Cameron Goode (kneecap) and Jerome Baker (wrist) for the rest of the season to injuries suffered Week 18 against the Bills, Ingram should have a significant role when Dolphins take the field against the Chiefs on Saturday.

Ingram had seven or more sacks each year from 2015 to 2019, but he then finished 2020 with zero sacks in seven games, with a knee injury ending his season after Week 11. He then left the Chargers for the first time in his career, signing a one-year contract with the Steelers in July after a long spell as a free agent. The 32-year-old has three Pro Bowl nods to his name, but given how he struggled last season, Ingram may need to compete with Alex Highsmith for a starting job at outside linebacker, bookending perennial DPOY candidate T.J. Watt.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Joining Miami
The Dolphins signed Ingram to their practice squad Tuesday, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Ingram has remained a free agent for the entire season but is reunited with the Dolphins after spending all of the 2022 campaign with the team. Though he isn't yet on Miami's active roster, he could ultimately find a role as a replacement for Jaelan Phillips, who suffered a season-ending Achilles injury in Week 12 against the Jets. Though Ingram is past his prime, he still managed six sacks across 17 games in 2022.
