Overview

  • Brents was injured in Miami’s 16-13 overtime victory over Washington in Madrid and will miss the rest of 2025, per NFL Network.
  • Head coach Mike McDaniel said the outlook for this season is not optimistic, and multiple reports indicate Brents is headed to injured reserve.
  • NFL Network reports he is expected to be fully recovered by the start of the 2026 season.
  • With Rasul Douglas sidelined but a possible return after the bye, Miami will lean on Jason Marshall Jr., Ethan Bonner and practice-squad option Isaiah Johnson.
  • Claimed off waivers from the Colts in August, Brents appeared in seven games (two starts) for the Dolphins with 14 tackles, and he remains under contract for 2026.
