Dolphins signs Willis, who aims to rebound from knee injury

Published: Aug 06, 2011 at 07:20 AM

DAVIE, Fla. -- Veteran offensive tackle Ray Willis has signed with the Miami Dolphins after missing last season because of a knee injury.

Willis was a disappointment with the Seattle Seahawks, who took him in the fourth round of the 2005 NFL Draft. He started 26 games for the Seahawks, including all 16 in 2009.

The 6-foot-6, 304-pound Willis reinforces depth at tackle, where Jake Long and newcomer Marc Colombo are the projected starters. The Dolphins waived tackle Micah Kia on Saturday.
