WitP: Ikaika Alama-Francis Signs with Miami

Via Stephen Tsai, Ikaika Alama-Francis signed with the Miami Dolphins today, reuniting with former UH teammate Davone Bess.

The Dolphins signed veteran cornerback Evan Oglesby to take his place, and defensive lineman Ikaika Alama-Francis, a former Hawaii standout, who was a 2008 second-round selection by the Detroit Lions, was also added to the roster.

Alama-Francis played four games for the Lions, contributing 12 tackles in 2008, but was released at the end of training camp this year and didn't catch on with another team.

He'll likely be called on help fill the void created by the season-ending quadriceps injury Jason Ferguson suffered in last week's 24-17 win over Carolina.
