Overview
- Jaylen Waddle suited up despite a shoulder issue and opened the game without an early target.
- Edge rusher Chop Robinson and defensive tackle Benito Jones were also active after entering the day questionable.
- Defensive backs Storm Duck and Ifeatu Melifownu were inactive with leg injuries, thinning Miami’s secondary.
- The Dolphins elevated safety Jordan Colbert and kicker Riley Patterson, and activated running back Jaylen Wright for his season debut with a light workload expected.
- These moves come as Miami pursues its first win with a defense that has four sacks through two weeks and has allowed 100-plus rushing yards in both games.
