Dolphins Add International Prospect Seydou Traore

The Miami Dolphins selected Mississippi State TE Seydou Traore in the fifth round. As part of the NFL’s International Player Pathway (IPP) program, Traore does not count against the Dolphins' roster. Traore, who caught 35 passes for 369 yards and 4 TDs in 2025, offers more receiving upside than fellow rookie TE Will Kacmarek. He primarily played in the slot this past season and is viewed as a developmental pass-catching weapon.
