Dolphins at Jets — Injury Report
By Gene Hauze
In case you missed it, the Offical Injury Report is out for the Monday Night game between the Dolphins and the Jets. There are some interesting players on each roster who are showing up on the Injury Report.
For the Dolphins, the players who were listed on the injury report along with their injury and weekly practice status are as follows:
| Tony McDaniel | DE | Hand | Full Participation in Practice |
| Koa Misi | LB | Neck | Full Participation in Practice |
| Nolan Carroll | CB | Hamstring | Limited Participation in Practice |
| Chris Clemons | S | Hamstring | Limited Participation in Practice |
| Vontae Davis | CB | Hamstring | Limited Participation in Practice |
| Daniel Thomas | RB | Hamstring | Limited Participation in Practice |
| Will Yeatman | TE | Shoulder | Limited Participation in Practice |
A big concern for the Dolphins is the injuries to CBs Davis and Carroll. If they can’t go or are limited, the Dolphins will have to resort to rookie Jimmy Wilson. Add to that, the injury to FS Clemons causes greater concern that the Dolphins will be susceptible to the passing attack of the Jets — especially by the Jets’ TE Keller. The biggest concern for the Dolphins is the lingering injury to RB Daniel Thomas, who is questionable for the game. The Dolphins could really use Thomas in the running game to take some of the heat off QB Matt Moore. It is interesting to note the number of hamstring injuries have been suffered by Dolphins offensive and defensive backs.
For the Jets, the players who were listed on the injury report along with their injury and weekly practice status are as follows:
| Nick Mangold | C | Ankle | Did Not Participate In Practice |
| Ropati Pitoitua | DE | Knee | Did Not Participate In Practice |
| Isaiah Trufant | CB | Hamstring | Did Not Participate In Practice |
| Marquice Cole | CB | Hamstring | Full Participation in Practice |
| Marcus Dixon | DT | Shoulder | Full Participation in Practice |
| Garrett McIntyre | LB | Concussion | Full Participation in Practice |
| Bart Scott | LB | Toe | Full Participation in Practice |
| Martin Tevaseu | DT | Low Back | Full Participation in Practice |
| Muhammad Wilkerson | DE | Shoulder | Full Participation in Practice |
| Tanner Purdum | LS | Low Back | Limited Participation in Practice |
| Donald Strickland | CB | Concussion | Limited Participation in Practice |
| LaDainian Tomlinson | RB | Calf | Limited Participation in Practice |
| Logan Payne | WR | Wrist | Out (Definitely Will Not Play) |
The Jets also have issues at the CB position. However, their starters seem to be okay which means they will lack depth in case of any game injuries or if the game turns into a track meet. Also, the Jets may be short handed on special teams. Likely the Jets biggest injury concern is to Mangold at the Center position, who is listed as questionable for the game. If Mangold and Tomlinson of the Jets and Thomas of the Dolphins can’t go on Monday Night, we may see a lot of passing.
