Raheem Mostert Has Broken Thumb

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert suffered a broken thumb in the win over the New York Jets in Week 18.

Jason Sanders Busy As Dolphins Clinch Playoff Berth

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders played a key role in Sunday's win over the New York Jets on Sunday, going 3-for-3 on field goals.

Jaylen Waddle Catches Five Passes In Week 18

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle hauled in all five of his targets for 44 yards against the New York Jets on Sunday. On one hand, Waddle's stat line was underwhelming compared to the talent and production he has demonstrated throughout most of the season. On the other hand, he represented one of the few […]

Durham Smythe Enjoys Season-High Volume In Week 18

Miami Dolphins tight end Durham Smythe had one of his best games of the season on Sunday, hauling in three of five targets for 39 yards (all season-highs) against the New York Jets. Smythe plays behind Mike Gesicki, so even though he has a catch in each of the Dolphins' last four games and seems […]

Mike Gesicki Leads Dolphins Pass-Catchers Sunday

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki turned six targets into four catches for 46 yards during Sunday's win over the New York Jets. He led all Miami pass-catchers in targets and receiving yards. Gesicki was held without a catch from Weeks 12 to 14, so it has been refreshing to see him get more involved […]

Tyreek Hill Underwhelms Versus Jets

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill had an underwhelming Week 18 outing versus the New York Jets. The former Chiefs star finished with just five targets, two catches, and 23 yards. While some of Hill's underproduction can be blamed on an ankle injury that temporarily sidelined him, the primary factor was subpar quarterback play. The […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Leads Backfield In Week 18 Win

Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. rushed 16 times for 72 yards during Sunday's playoff-clinching win over the New York Jets. He also hauled in each of his two targets for an additional one yard through the air. Part of Wilson's success can be attributed to a thin backfield since Raheem Mostert (thumb) was […]

Skylar Thompson Leads Dolphins To Week 18 Win

Miami Dolphins quarterback Skylar Thompson had an uninspiring Week 18 in which he went 20-for-31 with 152 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Despite his subpar stats, Thompson deserves credit for orchestrating three scoring drives and leading Miami to a win. The victory punched the Dolphins' ticket to the playoffs, where they hope to have […]

Dolphins Defense Forces Safety In Week 18 Win

The Miami Dolphins' defense looked solid in Week 18, holding the New York Jets to just six points on two field goals. The unit failed to register a turnover or sack but did tally a safety on a botched Jets lateral as time expired. Miami has now clinched a playoff berth and will face the […]

Raheem Mostert Downgraded To Out

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (thumb) exited Week 18 against the New York Jets and won't return. The 30-year-old rushed 11 times for 71 yards before departing the contest. Jeff Wilson Jr. should lead Miami's backfield the rest of the way.

Raheem Mostert Questionable To Return Sunday

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (thumb) exited Week 18 against the New York Jets and is officially listed as questionable. The 30-year-old rushed 11 times for 71 yards before departing the contest. Jeff Wilson Jr. should lead Miami's backfield until Mostert can return.

Tyreek Hill Returns In Week 18

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (ankle) has returned to Sunday's game against the New York Jets. He briefly exited and was listed as questionable, but he's now back in the contest as Miami looks to keep its playoff aspirations alive. The Dolphins need a win and New England loss in order to secure the […]

Tyreek Hill Questionable To Return With Ankle Injury

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (ankle) is questionable to return against the New York Jets in Week 18. He hauled in two of four targets for 23 yards before exiting. Jaylen Waddle and Trent Sherfield should lead the receiver corps until Hill can return. Miami, led by third-string quarterback Skylar Thompson, needs a win […]
