At 6-foot-4 and 315 pounds, Mokofisi, 22, started at right guard in all 13 games for the Utes last season and did not allow a sack
Mokofisi allowed just 12 pressures and 10 hurries in 2025
The guard’s combination of size, athleticism and toughness has helped him gain attention from Miami, which is searching for young talent capable of contributing at the next level
For the Dolphins, bringing Mokofisi in for a workout allows the organization to evaluate more than just his on-field skills
Coaches and scouts will likely examine his technique, footwork, football awareness, and ability to fit into Miami’s offensive system

Private workouts provide teams with valuable chances to learn about prospects while also determining whether their playing style matches the team’s needs
The Dolphins have consistently emphasized the importance of building a reliable offensive front to protect quarterback Malik Willis and create plenty of opportunities for their playmakers — notably running back De’Von Achane
Adding depth could help Miami strengthen its offensive line and provide additional flexibility when constructing its roster before Week 1 on Sept. 13
