Jonnu Smith's agent updates contract talks with Dolphins
In a Sunday appearance on WSVN 7's Sports Xtra, Jonnu Smith's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, shared an update on the ongoing contract discussions. Rosenhaus described the negotiations as "still fluid." "Nothing has been resolved yet. It's still an ongoing situation. I would say that it will be resolved I think by training camp, but it's still very active right now and nothing has been finalized at this juncture," Rosenhaus said. Advertisement Dolphins training camp will open next month at the Baptist Health Training Complex in Miami Gardens. Despite the ongoing contract dispute and his recent holdout from mandatory minicamp, Rosenhaus has said previously that Smith's "dream team" is the Dolphins. "Here's what I will say on behalf of my client: Jonnu would definitely like to stay in Miami. That's his first choice. This is where he lives in the offseason. He had a record-breaking season last year. It was the best season ever for a Miami Dolphin tight end. "His dream team is the Dolphins. Hopefully, everything works out where he can stay in Miami," Rosenhaus told the Miami Herald of Smith on June 1. Advertisement While Smith has been involved in Miami trade discussions with the Pittsburgh Steelers, there remains optimism that Smith and the Dolphins can iron down a contract extension that satisfies both sides. Smith is currently set to enter the 2025 season on the back half of a two-year, $8.4 million contract that he signed with the Dolphins in March of last year. Smith set single-season Dolphins franchise records for a tight end in receptions (88), receiving yards (884) and touchdowns (8). Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa shared his stance on whether or not the Dolphins should pay Smith during minicamp. "Oh 100%, that's my guy. That's my dog. Jonnu has done really good for us. I have nothing bad to say about him. I love him as a person, too, outside of football. I think all of our guys that do what they need to do, they should get paid," Tagovailoa said last week.

Miami Beach again pushes for no spring breakers and pushes new campaign to end the party
Officials in Miami Beach, Florida are implementing strict security measures to crack down on spring breakers traveling to the waterfront city next month. City officials are ordering heightened police presence, parking garage closures, DUI checkpoints and even potential curfews throughout March as spring breakers flock to the region, according to the Miami Beach website. The new 'Reality Check' program will also include the implementation of license plate readers and other surveillance technology throughout the month. 'Consistent with last year's spring break, Miami Beach will once again impose tough measures in March to reinforce the message that the city is not interested in being a spring break party destination,' the city's website reads. The city will also have 'Goodwill Ambassadors' roaming the Entertainment District, wearing pink 'Take Care of Our City' shirts and offering tips on how to 'enjoy the city responsibly.' This follows the 'Breaking Up with Spring Break' campaign the city launched last year, which aimed to promote peace and safety during spring break after three straight years of violence during the season. 'We set a new standard for spring break in Miami Beach last year,' Mayor Steven Meiner said in a statement this week. 'This year, we're building on that success, ensuring Miami Beach remains a welcoming destination where people can enjoy our world-class beaches, restaurants, and community in a safe family-friendly atmosphere.' However, the program wasn't popular with everyone. Some business owners were worried about losing money, while others argued the program was an overreaction to Black crowds, the Associated Press reports. 'Everybody loves this idea that they are free from their government intruding on them,' attorney Stephen Hunter Johnson said at the time. 'But amazingly, if the government intrudes on Black people, everyone's fine with it.' However, Meiner rejected this criticism: 'I have a moral obligation to keep people safe, and right now, it is not safe.' City officials said fewer arrests were made in 2024 during the 'Breaking Up with Spring Break' program compared to previous years, local outlet WSVN7 reports.
