Dear Miami Dolphins fans and the entire Dolphins community,
As I sit down to write this letter, my heart is full with thanks and warmth. It is not often that one has the opportunity to express such deep gratitude, but today I feel obligated to do so. To the Miami Dolphins organization, the great fans, and the whole Dolphins community, I express my heartfelt gratitude for your steadfast support and the caring atmosphere in which I’ve grown as a player and as a person.
I knew I was a part of something unique the moment I stepped onto the field in my aqua and orange uniform. The enthusiasm and dedication that permeate every aspect of this organization are simply exceptional. Every day, I am motivated by the dedication of my teammates, coaches, and staff to achieving greatness in everything we do. This collective passion motivates me to be the best version of myself, both on and off the field.
To the supporters, your excitement is unparalleled. Rain or shine, win or lose, you remain unwaveringly committed to us. The enthusiasm you bring to Hard Rock Stadium is tremendous, and it drives our determination to succeed. Whether it’s a rousing cheer after a touchdown or a supporting chant during a difficult game, your presence is noticed and appreciated more than you realize.
Beyond the yells and praise, what actually distinguishes Dolphins supporters is a strong feeling of camaraderie. From tailgate parties to philanthropic events, you all come together as one large family, united by your passion for the team. Your kindness and charity have affected my heart in ways that I cannot articulate. Thank you for welcoming me as one of your own and making Miami feel like home.
Thank you to the Dolphins organization for believing in me from the beginning. From the front office to the coaching staff, you’ve given me the tools and advice I need to flourish at the highest level. Your confidence in my skills has not gone unnoticed, and I am determined to reciprocate that trust with hard effort and devotion each time I step onto the field.
As I reflect on my trip thus far, I am filled with deep gratitude. Gratitude for the opportunities that have come my way, for the support that has been extended to me, and for the opportunity to represent the Miami Dolphins every Sunday. We’re creating something great, and I’m honored to be a part of it.
Finally, I’d like to offer my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has helped me grow and develop as a player and as a person. Your love and support mean everything to me, and I am incredibly grateful to each and every one of you. Let us continue to make waves and pursue greatness together.
With great gratitude,
Jaylen Waddle
