Ryan Tannehill has said that the Miami Dolphins are "excited about the opportunities" ahead of the 2013 NFL season.

The AFC East side have brought in a number of players since the start of the free agency period, including wide receiver Mike Wallace.

The team's quarterback, who made his debut in the league last season, told ESPN: "We're all excited about the opportunities on the plate now. It's just a matter of taking advantage of them.

"I'm really looking forward to getting into the second year. I've heard so many guys say you make your biggest jump from year one to year two.

"I've had a lot of fun this off-season working and trying to improve the little things, learning from film, doing footwork drills, throwing and just trying to get better."

The Dolphins finished the 2012 season second in their division, with seven wins and nine losses.
