The Miami Dolphins re-signed backup offensive tackle Jason Fox to a two-year contract Thursday, the team announced. The total value of the contract is $2.5 million, a source confirmed.

Fox adds value to Miami because he can play both left tackle and right tackle. Last season, Fox filled finished the season as the Dolphins’ starting right tackle for the final two games after Dallas Thomas was injured.

“We are excited that we have reached an agreement with Jason to keep him with the Miami Dolphins,” Dolphins general manager Dennis Hickey said in a statement. “He was a very positive addition for us last season, both on the field and in the community.”

Fox currently is projected to be Miami's third offensive tackle behind starters Branden Albert and Ja'Wuan James.
