Odell Beckham Jr. - Set to play Sunday Beckham (knee), who was activated off the reserve/PUP list Saturday, is listed as questionable but is slated to make his season debut Sunday against the Patriots, Ian Rapoport of N...
Impact Beckham is more of a big name than a fantasy factor at this point in his career, and even if he does still have some juice left in him, Miami's moribund passing attack without Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) will make it difficult to rely on him to deliver useful numbers. The 31-year-old Beckham recorded 565 receiving yards in 14 games with the Ravens in 2023 and likely represents an upgrade over Malik Washington and practice squad call-ups as a No. 3 option at receiver behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Because he just resumed practicing this week after spending the entirety of training camp and the preseason on the PUP list, Beckham will likely be on a limited snap count Week 5.

Odell Beckham Jr. - May debut with team Sunday Beckham (knee), who remains on the reserve/PUP list, is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest in New England.
Impact Since joining the Dolphins on May 3, Beckham kicked off training camp on the active/PUP list due to an undisclosed reason before officially getting moved to reserve/PUP on Aug. 27. The transaction meant the veteran wide receiver must miss at least the first four games of the season, and GM Chris Grier revealed on Aug. 28 that Beckham was recovering for an offseason procedure. Miami officially designated him for return Wednesday, and its first Week 5 practice report revealed him to be dealing with a knee issue. Having said that, he was a full participant all week, seemingly give him good odds to make his debut with the team Sunday. Coach Mike McDaniel told Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post on Friday that Beckham will have "some modified usage" in his initial outing, which could be Sunday assuming the Dolphins activate him Saturday afternoon, and "there would be an uptick" in work beyond that point.

Terron Armstead - Ready for Week 5 Armstead (concussion) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Impact Armstead missed the Dolphins' Week 4 loss to the Titans after suffering a concussion the prior week, but it now appears he's passed protocols. Expect the 33-year-old offensive lineman to serve as the Dolphins' top left tackle in Week 5.
OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE
Kendall Fuller - Cleared to play Sunday Fuller (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Patriots and is expected to play, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Impact After missing Week 4 and most of Week 3, Fuller will draw back into the lineup opposite Jalen Ramsey. Storm Duck was playing heavy defensive snaps in Fuller's place and will go back to sub-package duties. On the season, Fuller has 13 tackles (eight solo) and two pass breakups.
OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE
David Long Jr. - Good to go for Week 5 Long (hamstring) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Patriots and is expected to play, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Impact After missing last Monday night's game against Tennessee, Long was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday before logging a full session Friday. Anthony Walker will likely head back to the bench on defense with Long back in the lineup. Through three games, Long has 21 tackles (18 solo), including two TFLs.
OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan Poyer - Won't face New England Poyer (shin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Impact Poyer didn't practice at all this week ahead of Sunday's AFC East tilt. Marcus Maye will likely draw into the starting lineup next to Jevon Holland on Sunday in place of Poyer.

Raheem Mostert - Set to return Sunday Mostert (chest) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in New England, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Mostert hasn't played since Week 1 due to a chest injury, which has sidelined him the last three contests. He was able to return to practice as of Sept. 18, but he also was listed as limited on every Dolphins injury report in the meantime until Friday, when he finally logged a full practice. Coach Mike McDaniel told Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald on Friday that the team is "going to modify how much he plays in general" if he's able to suit up Sunday. As a result, Mostert likely will be operating with a cap on his reps this weekend and perhaps until McDaniel feels he can handle a normal workload. Expect Mostert to play second fiddle to De'Vone Achane out of Miami's backfield for the time being.

Malik Washington - Cleared to play Week 5 Washington (quadriceps) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Impact Washington was limited in all three of Miami's practices but will play through his injury for the second consecutive game. He played only 14 snaps on offense in his Week 4 NFL debut, and the rookie sixth-round pick will likely be deployed in a limited role again Sunday.
OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE
Braxton Berrios - Will play Week 5 Berrios (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Impact Berrios practiced fully Friday after a pair of limited sessions to gain clearance for Sunday's showdown between AFC East cellar-dwellers. Berrios will play his usual role in the slot while returning both kickoffs and punts, but Miami's ceiling on offense remains low with Tyler Huntley set to start under center, and most of Huntley's throws will likely be directed to Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.
OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE
Skylar Thompson - Could play Week 5 but as backup Thompson (ribs) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Impact Thompson sat out Week 4 against the Titans after getting hurt in his Week 3 start against the Seahawks, but he has a chance to gain clearance for Week 5 after three consecutive limited practices. Even if Thompson's cleared to return, he would be the backup to Tyler Huntley, who will make a second consecutive start.

Jordan Poyer - Looking unlikely for Week 5 Coach Mike McDaniel said Friday that Poyer (shin) will not practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact McDaniel doesn't seem optimistic about Poyer's chances of suiting up for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Patriots, which is unsurprising given that the starting safety has missed three consecutive practices since being forced out of Monday's loss to the Titans. Marcus Maye will likely start at strong safety if Poyer's shin injury indeed rules him out for Sunday's divisional clash.
OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE
Raheem Mostert - Could play Sunday, practice pending Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Friday that Mostert (chest) could suit up Sunday versus New England on modified reps, depending on how much he's able to do in practice Frida...
Impact Mostert has practiced in a limited capacity since his return to on-field activities Sept. 18, so it sounds like the veteran running back may need to handle a full session Friday in order to be cleared for Week 5. Even if given the green light to play in New England, though, it sounds like Mostert would remain on a snap count. McDaniel said the same for wide receiver Odell Beckham (knee), who resumed practicing Wednesday but has yet to be fully activated from the reserve/PUP list.

Raheem Mostert - Still limited at practice Mostert (chest) remained limited at practice Thursday, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Impact Mostert, who has missed three straight games, continues to practice in a limited fashion as Sunday's game against the Patriots approaches. He'll presumably need to upgrade to full participation Friday in order to avoid an injury designation heading into the weekend.
OCTOBER 3 • ROTOWIRE
Terron Armstead - Moving through protocols Armstead (concussion) was a full participant during practice Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Armstead suffered the concussion in Week 3, which had him sidelined for Monday's loss to the Titans. However, after logging a limited session Wednesday, the veteran offensive tackle was able to participate in full Thursday. Although he'll still need to be cleared by an independent neurologist, Armstead appears to be trending toward a return Sunday against the Patriots.
OCTOBER 3 • ROTOWIRE
Jeff Wilson Jr. - Turns in full practice Wilson (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Wilson was limited to just two total snaps in Monday's 31-12 loss to the Titans after hurting his knee in pregame warmups, but his ability to put in a limited practice Wednesday followed by a full session Thursday clears up any concern about his availability heading into Sunday's game at New England. De'Von Achane remains the top option in the Miami backfield, and Wilson could soon see his modest backup role disappear if Raheem Mostert (chest) is able to put an end to his three-game absence this weekend.

2024 NFL Week 5 action report: 'People aren’t believing in Jets' ahead of Vikings tilt

2024 NFL Week 5 action report: 'People aren’t believing in Jets' ahead of Vikings tilt
Jaelan Phillips - Moves to IR Phillips (knee) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.
Impact Phillips was already reportedly out for the season due to a partial right ACL tear suffered in Monday's loss to the Titans. So, his shift to IR makes sense, which created a roster spot that the Dolphins used to sign fellow linebacker Tyus Bowser. Phillips will now focus on his recovery, with an eye toward a return in 2025, the final year of his rookie contract.
OCTOBER 3 • ROTOWIRE
Tyus Bowser - Finds opportunity in Miami Bowser was signed off the Seahawks' practice squad by the Dolphins' on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Impact Bowser appeared in two games for Seattle this season, after spending the previous six seasons as a regular part of the Ravens' linebacker corps. The 29-year-old's addition comes as Miami has lost Jaelan Phillips (knee) for the remainder of the season. Bowser will be tasked with bolstering the team's depth at linebacker.

OCTOBER 3 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Jaelan Phillips - Recovering from partial ACL tear Phillips (knee) suffered a season-ending partial right ACL tear during Monday's loss to the Titans, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN reports.
Impact Phillips was limited to eight regular-season appearances last season, with most of his missed time come as the result of a torn Achilles sustained Week 12. The standout pass rusher was able to work his way back and gain clearance to play as early as August, but he now faces the task of recovering from yet another serious injury. The Dolphins picked up Phillips' fifth-year option over the offseason, so he will play out the final year of his rookie contract during the 2025 campaign.
OCTOBER 3 • ROTOWIRE
Odell Beckham Jr. - Passing eye test at practice Dolphins wide receivers coach Wes Welker said Thursday that Beckham (knee) "has looked great" after he practiced in full Wednesday, Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald reports.
Impact Welker said ""In some of the routes on air, he looks like the [Beckham] we've seen." The veteran wideout missed Miami's first four-regular season games while on the PUP list, and while it looks like he's set for another full practice Thursday, the Dolphins haven't yet indicated whether Beckham is expected to be available Sunday versus the Patriots. "We will go through practice and talk about it as a staff and figure out the best case scenario for our team," Welker said. Tyler Huntley will draw another start versus New England. With Braxton Berrios (ankle) and Malik Washington (quadriceps) both limited to begin the week, and four other wide receivers on IR, the Dolphins could use a boost behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.
