Norton is on the Dolphins’ 90-man roster and was set to earn a $495,000 if he made the 53-man roster.

The Dolphins have the option to put him on the Non-Football Injury list, which would allow the team to keep paying him and would make him eligible for the league’s health insurance, the newspaper reported.
