Canadian defensive lineman Rene Konga has signed with the Miami Dolphins as an undrafted free agent following the 2026 NFL Draft.
The Ottawa, Ont., native was expected to be selected on Day 3 after generating some hype late in the process, but fell out of the draft entirely. He has reportedly received $287,500 in guaranteed money — a significant amount by UDFA standards.
Konga has spent the past two seasons at the University of Louisville, where he earned second-team All-ACC honours at defensive tackle as a senior in 2025. He appeared in 23 games for the Cardinals, recording 49 total tackles, eight tackles for loss, four sacks, and six batted passes.
