The Dolphins have officially signed safety Zayne Anderson. A jack-of-all-trades as a collegian at BYU, Anderson entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent. He spent his first two years as a pro with the Kansas City Chiefs, winning a Super Bowl in the process, before playing the previous three seasons with the Green Bay Packers.

1. Mr. Do It All

Originally a defensive back at BYU, Anderson converted to linebacker for his final three college seasons. He had a pair of red shirt seasons that afforded him six years of eligibility before making the jump to the NFL. In addition to his work on defense, Anderson was a key special teams contributor for the Cougars during his final season.

A prep football and track standout in Stansbury Park, Utah population: about 5,000, Anderson dominated the state championship podium. He took first in four events (100 meters, 200 meters, 4x100 relay and the sprint medley) as a high school senior.

That speed was on display at his pro day, when he clocked a 4.40-second 40-yard dash.

2. Contributions in the kicking game

Anderson's title-winning speed has translated directly to a productive NFL career. Over five seasons with the Chiefs and Packers, Anderson totaled 784 snaps and 28 combined tackles on special teams. A high-motor player with exceptional straight-line speed and a refined tackling technique, Anderson has been a key part of teams that have made deep postseason runs.

3. By the numbers

Beginning his career in Kansas City, Anderson returned to his original college position at linebacker. He played seven games over two seasons before catching on with the Green Bay Packers. After transitioning back to safety, Anderson played 40 games, making two starts, for the Packers, totaling 36 tackles, one interception and two passes defensed.
