Dolphins Invite Nick Malone to Rookie Minicamp, Providing Path for Another West Virginia Native in NFL

Nick Malone accepted an invite to rookie minicamp from the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, granting an NFL opportunity to another WVU product and West Virginia native.

After earning All-State honors as a senior at Morgantown High School, Malone was a redshirt for West Virginia in 2019 and then played in a couple games during the shortened season due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
