The Miami Dolphins released wide receiver Preston Williams on Tuesday.

Williams has been on the trade block for the last few weeks, but the Dolphins were unable to find a destination for the fourth-year wideout, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Williams will now go through the waiver process.

Miami's receiving corps has shifted multiple times over the last two seasons. The Dolphins drafted Jaylen Waddle sixth overall in the 2021 NFL Draft and traded for star wide receiver Tyreek Hill this offseason.

The team signed Williams as an undrafted free agent in May 2019, and he had 428 receiving yards in his rookie season before tearing his ACL in November. Williams only has 359 receiving yards over the last two campaigns combined.
