UPDATE: The Dolphins have announced that Eichenberg will not play today.

The Miami Dolphins moved Liam Eichenberg from tackle to guard but over the course of the last few days, Eichenberg lost his hold on the spot to Solomon Kindley. The question today is where will Eichenberg line up?

Jesse Davis was on the outside at right tackle but we could see Eichenberg get his shot at playing in the position if he doesn’t open at guard. The Dolphins should hope that Eichenberg can play tackle and his move inside was more about Kindley’s struggles early rather than Liam’s struggles at tackle.

Today should put some of that in better focus and we will have a better idea of where the coaches think these guys should be. The right side of the line is the only question at this point. Yes, there is a battle at center as we mentioned but Austin Jackson and Robert Hunt have the left side under control right now.

That would typically be great except that for the Dolphins, the line is switched because Tua is left-handed. His blindside is on the right side of the line so the Dolphins need to figure out the best duo to protect their quarterback. Hopefully, a step in the right direction is made today.
