Sean Spence visits the Dolphins

Posted by Michael David Smith on March 11, 2016, 7:44 PM EST

Free agent linebacker Sean Spence is visiting Miami.

A league source tells PFT that Spence has a meeting with the Dolphins tonight.

A 2012 third-round pick of the Steelers, Spence missed his first two seasons in the NFL with injuries. But he played well in both 2014 and 2015 and at age 25 may have the best years of his career ahead of him.

Spence is the No. 99 player on our Free Agent Hot 100.

Hmmm. He has talent. He is replacable.

This could turn into a thread like the one on Foster.

Ovi?

I guess the concern I have is health issues we've seen at that position over the last 2 seasons. He has filled in well when needed.

Would love to see Sean Spence stay. Been rooting for the kid ever since he suffered that nasty injury his rookie year. Wasn't even supposed to walk again. Great character with tremendous work ethic..and is a talented LB. I wish him good health wherever he ends up. He's one of my favorite steelers on the roster.

Yeah, I think Spence can be a starter in this league, just not on our team right now. Spence is a better Jerry Olsavsky--these guys have an overachieving mentality and are just football playing dudes.

BTW, whatever happened with Jordan Zumwalt? I know he got cut (partly due to another injury). I don't remember seeing him picked up, and I thought (even though he was cut) that the door was still sort-of left open for him with the Steelers.

Didnt Spence play at the U? I bet he never steps foot in PA again...lol

I think Spence knows he can start. And he deserves a true starters shot. So, he will be gone. The Steeler s must bring Garvin back then imo. They can't loose both these guys. It will hurt packages and ST quite a bit

Found the answer to my question. Looks like Zumwalt is still around.

Not a player in the league who doesn't think they should be THE starter
