INJURIES

Skylar Thompson - Limited practice Wednesday Thompson (ribs) was limited at practice Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact After logging three straight limited practices ahead of Week 4 action, Thompson was the Dolphins' inactive emergency third QB for this past Monday night's game against the Titans. It remains to be seen if that remains the case this weekend against the Patriots, but either way Tyler Huntley is slated to remain the Dolphins starting QB for now, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Raheem Mostert - Remains limited at practice Mostert (chest) was limited at practice Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Mostert was also limited last week, but ended up inactive for Monday night's game against the Titans. The running back has two more chances to increase his participation level in advance of Week 5 action, which also applies to fellow RB Jeff Wilson (knee), but if Mostert remains sidelined this weekend against the Patriots, De'Von Achane would continue to lead Miami's backfield, with Jaylen Wright and Wilson (if available) also in the mix.
OCTOBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Malik Washington - Logs limited session Wednesday Washington (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact The rookie wideout played through his quadriceps issue in Week 4's loss to the Titans, hauling in his only target for eight yards across 14 offensive snaps. Washington is projected to continue playing through this quadriceps injury in Week 5 unless his practice participation downgrades either Thursday or Friday.
OCTOBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Braxton Berrios - Limited Wednesday Berrios (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Berrios appears to have sustained an ankle injury during the Dolphins' Week 4 loss to the Titans, despite playing 26 total snaps (14 offensive and 12 on special teams) and logging 27 punt-return yards. The Miami product's participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his potential availability in Week 5, as the Dolphins travel to New England.

Jeff Wilson Jr. - Limited in practice Wilson (knee) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Wilson took two snaps on offense and none on special teams after injuring his knee during pregame warmups for Monday's eventual loss to the Titans. His ability to play at all and then take part in a walk-through practice a few days later suggests it's a minor injury, but his chances for Week 5 involvement at New England also depend on Raheem Mostert's recovery from a chest injury. Mostert missed the past three games and also was listed as a limited participant on the Wednesday practice report.

Dolphins pass rusher Jaelan Phillips to have season-ending knee surgery

Miami Dolphins pass rusher Jaelan Phillips said the knee injury he suffered against the Tennessee Titans on Monday night will require season-ending surgery
OCTOBER 2 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Jaelan Phillips - Out for the year Phillips announced Wednesday that he will miss the remainder of the 2024 season due to a knee injury, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Phillips failed to mention the exact injury to his knee, but the 2021 first-round pick did state that he'll need reconstructive surgery. The Miami product returned to the field this season after sustaining a season-ending Achilles injury eight games into the Dolphins' 2023 campaign. He's appeared in 12 games over the past two years, recording 49 total tackles, including 7.5 sacks, and defended four passes. Expect Emmanuel Ogbah to see more work with Miami's first-team defense now that Phillips has announced he's out for the year.
OCTOBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Odell Beckham Jr. - Full practice participant Beckham (knee) was a full practice participant Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Miami's first practice report of the week confirms that Beckham -- who is on the PUP list -- has been sidelined due to a problem with his knee (specifics hadn't previously been reported) and suggests he could be back in action as soon as this Sunday at New England. He won't have much fantasy value while catching passes from backup QBs and competing with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle for snaps/targets, but Beckham could have a bigger role down the line if Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) eventually returns and either Hill or Waddle misses time.
OCTOBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Jason Sanders - Does job in loss Sanders made both of his field-goal attempts in Monday's 31-12 loss to the Titans.
Impact Sanders' performance didn't impact the game, but he was successful from 44 and 56 yards out, bringing him to 6-for-8 on FGAs in the 2024 campaign. Next up for the New Mexico product and the Dolphins is a visit to New England for a Week 5 matchup.

While the rookie QBs steal the headlines, a few newbies on the other side of the ball have started to make a name for themselves.

Rams' Jared Verse, Cowboys’ DeMarvion Overshown stand out among rookie defenders
Anthony Walker Jr. - Steps up production in start Walker recorded nine total tackles (three solo) in Monday's 31-12 loss to the Titans.
Impact Walker was thrust into a starting role with David Long (hamstring) unavailable, playing a season-high 56 defensive snaps. The nine takedowns were his highest total since Week 4 of the 2023 season and Walker has now registered 12 total tackles (five solo) over four games in 2024.
OCTOBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Emmanuel Ogbah - Six tackles, interception in loss Ogbah recorded six total tackles (three solo), an interception and a pass defensed in Monday's 31-12 loss to Tennessee.
Impact Ogbah was able to compile a season-high six stops while also securing his first interception of the year, picking off Will Levis in the first quarter. The linebacker has now produced 14 total tackles (eight solo), an interception and a pass defensed over four games this season.
OCTOBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Jordyn Brooks - Double-digit stops in loss Brooks recorded 13 total tackles (nine solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Monday's 31-12 loss to the Titans.
Impact Brooks was very active in Week 4, compiling a season-high 13 takedowns against Tennessee. Additionally, the linebacker secured his first sack of the year in the third quarter, bringing down Mason Rudolph. Through four games in 2024, Brooks has registered 32 total tackles (17 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two passes defensed.

Odell Beckham Jr. - Set to have practice window opened Head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Tuesday that Beckham (undisclosed) will have his 21-day practice window opened this week, per NFL.com.
Impact Beckham began the season on the PUP list due to an undisclosed injury, but it appears the 31-year-old wide receiver's return to practice is imminent. Once fully healthy, Beckham will have an opportunity to claim the No. 3 wide receiver role right off the bat behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Across 14 regular-season games for the Ravens last season, Beckham posted 35 catches (on 64 targets) for 565 yards and three touchdowns.
OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE
Jonnu Smith - Invisible in loss to former team Smith failed to secure his only target during Miami's 31-12 loss to the Titans on Monday night.
Impact Smith played a solid 43 percent of offensive snaps, but he was invisible in a game that featured Tyler Huntley throwing for less than 100 yards. The Dolphins' offense will need to get back on track Week 5 versus the Patriots in order for Smith to have any chance at producing, but the veteran tight end can safely be left off the fantasy radar in all but the deepest of formats until he shows some signs of consistency.
OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE
Malik Washington - Logs first career catch Washington secured his only target for eight yards during Monday's 31-12 loss to the Titans on Monday night.
Impact Washington played 26 percent of offensive snaps in his NFL debut. The rookie sixth-round pick missed the first three games of the season due to a quadriceps injury, but he played the same amount in Monday's loss to Tennessee as Braxton Berrios Dee Eskridge, who was elevated from the practice squad. Washington will look to earn more involvement against the Patriots on the road in Week 5.
OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE
Jaelan Phillips - Needs further evaluation Phillips (knee) is still being evaluated for his injury suffered in Monday's loss to the Titans, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact Phillips exited the game in the second half and was unable to return. Jackson speculates it's unlikely he'll play in Week 5 against the Patriots due to the short week, but confirmation likely won't come until the team releases its first injury report. Considering the team has a Week 6 bye, it wouldn't be surprising if Phillips ultimately got the week off for extra recovery time.

Tyler Huntley - Set for another start Coach Mike McDaniel said Tuesday that Huntley will start for Miami on the road against New England on Sunday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Huntley was mediocre in his Dolphins debut, Monday's 31-12 loss to the Titans, in which he completed 14 of 22 passes for just 96 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. He also rushed eight times for 40 yards and one score, providing some amount of a spark for Miami's rusty offense. McDaniel said Skylar Thompson (ribs) is taking longer than expected to recover, per Alain Poupart of SI.com, which informed the team's decision to name Huntley the Week 5 starter. A matchup against the Patriots provides Huntley with a solid bounceback opportunity, given that the team has allowed the fifth-most passing yards in the NFL this season.
OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE
Braxton Berrios - Not targeted in Week 4 loss Berrios was not targeted during Miami's 31-12 loss to the Titans on Monday night.
Impact Berrios logged his first game of the regular season without a target Monday. He remains without a catch through four appearances, though, despite having drawn four targets combined in the first three weeks of the season. Berrios, and the Dolphins' passing game as a whole, will look to bounce back Sunday in a road divisional matchup against the Patriots.
OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE
Jaylen Wright - Rushes nine times in MNF loss Wright carried the ball nine times for 32 yards and failed to secure his only target during Monday's 31-12 loss to the Titans on Monday night.
Impact Wright handled an increased workload due to Raheem Mostert (chest) remaining sidelined and Jeff Wilson (quadriceps) picking up an injury in pre-game warmups Monday, which limited him to two offensive snaps. Still, neither Wright or De'Von Achane (10 carries for 15 yards) were able to get much going in what was another miserable showing for the Dolphins' offense. Miami will have ana opportunity to bounce back against New England on Sunday, but if Mostert and/or Wilson are back in action, Wright will stand to see his workload decline.
