The Miami Dolphins have signed their fourth round draft selection, offensive guard Solomon Kindley.
Taken at No. 111 overall in April’s NFL Draft, Kindley signed a four-year deal that will pay him $4,079,572 in base salary and signing bonus, per the Orlando Sentinel.
From the Orlando Sentinel:
Kindley, a three-year starter for the Bulldogs, will likely compete with Ereck Flowers, Michael Deiter, Danny Isidora, Shaq Calhoun, Adam Pankey, Keaton Sutherland and fellow rookie Robert Hunt for one of the two starting guard spots on Miami’s rebuilt offensive line.
As a freshman at Georgia, Kindley was named to the Coaches’ Freshman All-SEC Team and played in over 43 games during his collegiate career.
Kindley was part of one of the best Georgia offensive lines in recent memory and helped lead the Bulldogs to three straight seasons of 11 wins or more.
His fellow teammates Andrew Thomas and Isaiah Wilson were also drafted this year and along with Kindley.
Kindley brings toughness and power at the guard position. At 6-foot-4, 340 pounds, the Jacksonville, Florida native is a force inside and is a linebacker’s nightmare when he moves to the second level.
His signing bonus is projected to be roughly $785,000.
