Britt signed a one-year contract with the Dolphins on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Britt is coming off a career year in Tampa Bay, having racked up 72tackles (40 solo) including 0.5 sacks, plus one pass defensed. With Anthony Walker having departed as a free agent and signed a one-year contract with the Buccaneers, Britt has a clear path to a starting role at interior linebacker with Miami, a role that could provide him with modest fantasy value in IDP formats.

Britt supplied 72 tackles (40 solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one defended pass across 14 regular-season games in 2024.
EDGE Analysis
Britt moved into a starting role at left inside linebacker in Todd Bowles' defense in 2024 and made good use of the opportunity, recording at least six stops in six contests while logging a career-high 588 snaps. Britt missed three games in Weeks 14-16 with an ankle injury, but he otherwise gave a solid accounting of himself in what was the final year of his rookie deal. Given the 2021 fifth-round pick has only one season of extensive play on film, it's possible Britt can be a cost-effective re-signing for the Buccaneers this offseason unless another team on the open market is willing to pay up for his potential.

Britt furnished three tackles (two solo) in the Buccaneers' 48-14 win over the Panthers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Britt was making his return from a three-game absence due to an ankle injury, but he played just 17 snaps (36 percent) on defense. The fourth-year linebacker has been productive overall despite the absences and modest numbers Sunday, as Britt now boasts a career-high 69 tackles (37 solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one pass defensed across 572 snaps over 13 games.

Britt (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Britt will return from a three-game absence due to an ankle injury he suffered in Week 13 against the Panthers. In the 11 games prior to his injury, the 2021 fifth-round pick logged 66 tackles (35 solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one pass defense. Britt should reclaim his starting spot at inside linebacker alongside Lavonte David while J.J. Russell and Deion Jones serve as the backups.

Britt (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Auburn product has been sidelined for each of Tampa Bay's last three games due to an ankle injury sustained in the Week 13 win over the Panthers. However, Britt practiced in full throughout the week, suggesting he's nearing a return to the field. If Britt suits up for Sunday's divisional matchup, he's expected to start alongside Lavonte David as part of the Bucs' top inside linebacker duo.

EDGE Analysis

Though the Buccaneers didn't hold a regular practice Wednesday, the fact Britt was estimated as a full participant suggests he could return to the field Sunday against the Panthers. J.J. Russell has been starting in Britt's absence.

EDGE Analysis
As expected, Britt will miss his third straight game due to an ankle injury, and his next opportunity to play will be Week 17 against the Panthers on Sunday, Dec. 29. Vi Jones and J.J. Russell are the top candidates to start at inside linebacker alongside Lavonte David due to Britt's injury.

Britt (ankle) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cowboys, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Auburn product has missed each of Tampa Bay's last two games due to an ankle injury, and despite limited practice sessions Thursday and Friday, it appears likely he'll miss his third game in a row Sunday. If Britt is sidelined in Week 16 as expected, Vi Jones is likely to start alongside Lavonte David as part of the Buccaneers' top inside linebacker duo.
