Howard had a rest day on Wednesday, not injury-related.
Three players didn’t practice and eight others were limited on Wednesday as the Miami Dolphins gear up for the season’s home opener against the Denver Broncos.
Offensively, wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (concussion) and running back Salvon Ahmed (groin) did not practice. Cornerback Xavien Howard did not practice because he was given a rest day.
Coach Mike McDaniel was asked about Waddle and Ahmed when meeting with the media on Wednesday.
“Yes, he’s not practicing [Wednesday],” he said when asked if Waddle was still sidelined. “I’m not really worried about the timeline....

Two games and two wins. I’m not, uh. I don’t know what to do with my hands.
If you’re reading this, you’re a Dolphins fan and that means you belong to an elite group of misfits who live for punishment and disappointment. Such is our lot in life. Or at least it has been for the better part of a century.
Yet, somehow, before the game kicked off between the Fins and The Belichick Bunch, I actually thought Miami was...

Welcome to the Splash Zone, the quickest way to get your day started off right. We bring you a rundown of Miami Dolphins news from the last 24 hours.
The New England Patriots defensive game plan was to take the deep ball and the middle of the field out of the Miami Dolphins offense. While the plan sort of worked, it did not matter as the Dolphins relied on the run game and short passing attack. It was great to see Mike McDaniel not have an ego and force the deep ball against a defense that was playing three high...

The Miami Dolphins added Byron Coward and Verone McKinley III to the practice squad.
The Miami Dolphins are changing the practice squad following Sunday’s win over the New England Patriots. The team announced on Tuesday that it signed safety Verone McKinley III and defensive tackle Byron Cowart to the practice squad.
McKinley returns to the Dolphins after playing 10 games for the franchise last season. He started two games and closed the year with 16 tackles, one interception, and one pass defended. The former undrafted free agent out of Oregon first joined Miami in May 2022.
Cowart started 14 games...

Through two weeks of the season we’ve seen two completely different football teams as the Dolphins roll to 2-0.
It wasn’t pretty, but the Miami Dolphins pulled off a 24-17 victory over a desperate New England football team to start the season 2-0 (both games on the road). As many expected, we saw Bill Belichick and the Patriots go deep into their bag of tricks and coverages to slow down this passing attack and try to pull the upset. Let’s take a look at some of the keys to the game from our preview article and talk about how the...

Andrew Van Ginkel stepped in for the injured Jaelan Phillips and had the best game of his career.
The Miami Dolphins depth was questioned by some in the media this offseason. Who would step up if one of the Dolphins’ top players were to be sidelined for a game or more? So far, Miami’s offensive line has performed very well despite the absence of All-Pro left tackle Terron Armstead. On Sunday night against the Patriots, it was the defense that needed a heroic effort from a depth piece, as young stud EDGE player Jaelan Phillips was held out with a...
