The Dolphins placed a right of first refusal tender on Kohou on Saturday, Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald reports. By placing a tender on Kohou -- who was a restricted free agent -- the Dolphins are able to match any contract offer that another team makes to the 26-year-old corner. Kohou played in 15 regular-season games in 2024 and finished with 45 tackles (33 solo), eight pass defenses (including a career-high two interceptions), one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.
Kohou played in 15 regular-season games in 2024 and finished with 45 tackles (33 solo), eight pass defenses (two interceptions), one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. Kohou served as the slot corner for Miami's defense for most of the 2024 season while Jalen Ramsey and Kendall Fuller (knee) served on the outside. Kohou enters the 2025 offseason as a restricted free agent, which means the Dolphins have the ability to match any offer that another team makes for the third-year corner.
Kohou had one solo tackle and an interception during the Dolphins' 29-17 win over the 49ers on Sunday. Kohou grabbed his second interception of the regular season Sunday when he picked off a Brock Purdy pass intended for Jauan Jennings late in the fourth quarter, which lead to a 50-yard rushing touchdown run De'Von Achane three plays later. Kohou is up to 36 tackles (27 solo), seven pass defenses (two interceptions), one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 13 regular-season games.
Kohou (back) is active for Sunday's game against the Jets. Kohou injured his back during the Dolphins' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Packers, which limited him in practice all week. However, he's progressed enough in his recovery to be cleared to play Sunday. Kohou has tallied 29 tackles (23 solo), five pass defenses (including one interception) and one fumble recovery over 10 regular-season games.
Kohou (back) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets. Kohou has been limited in practice all week due to a back injury he suffered during Miami's Week 13 loss to Green Bay. If he's unable to play in Sunday's AFC East clash, Storm Duck would likely fill in at slot corner alongside outside corners Kendall Fuller and Jalen Ramsey.
Kohou (back) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday's injury report, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Kohour suffered a back injury during the Dolphins' Week 13 loss to the Packers this past Thursday. He'll have two more opportunities this week to increase his practice participation ahead of Sunday's AFC East clash against the Jets. Storm Duck would be the top candidate to fill in at slot corner Sunday should Kohour be unable to play.
Kohou cleared his concussion evaluation but remains questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Packers due to a back injury, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Kohou was evaluated for a concussion after exiting Thursday's contest in the first quarter, and while he was cleared on the sidelines, it's unclear if he'll return to the game. Storm Duck or Siran Neal could be options to take his place in the defensive scheme if Kohou is unable to return.
Kohou (head/back) is questionable to return Thursday against the Packers. Kohou has been deemed questionable to return Thursday with a back injury but is also being evaluated for a concussion. The 26-year-old has 29 tackles (23 solo) in nine games this season, and if he can't return, then Storm Duck or Siran Neal could be options to take his place in the defensive scheme.
Kohou (neck) was listed as a full practice participant on Saturday's injury report and does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Rams, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Kohou has been sidelined for the Dolphins' last two regular-season games due to a neck injury. He was limited in practice to open the week, but he upgraded Saturday and will suit up Monday barring any setbacks.
