Overview
- Miami placed starting right tackle Austin Jackson on injured reserve with a toe injury, sidelining him for at least four games.
- Right guard James Daniels went on IR earlier this week with a pectoral injury, leaving both right-side starters out.
- Larry Borom is set to start at right tackle with Kion Smith at right guard, with Cole Strange recently added for interior depth.
- The Dolphins elevated kicker Riley Patterson and running back Jeff Wilson Jr. from the practice squad and signed cornerback Cornell Armstrong to the active roster.
- Jackson missed most of training camp with a toe issue and has a recent history of missed time, intensifying protection concerns for Tua Tagovailoa against a Patriots pass rush that produced five sacks in Week 1.
