Dolphins | Cameron Wake doesn’t mind bench role

Miami Dolphins DL Cameron Wake said that while he still believes he has ‘NFL starter ability,’ he’s more interested in putting the team before himself, meaning he would be accepting of a bench role. ‘I don’t have this, ‘Everybody look at me. I must be the starter.’ That’s not my mentality,’ Wake commented. ‘I want to do whatever is going to help the entirety of the team, the entirety of the defense. So, if it means me being a third-down guy, let’s do it. If it means I have to start and play every down, I’ll take that role on, too.’
