Miami Dolphins at Green Bay Packers Inactives
Note that the full inactive list is released by teams 90 minutes before kickoff. This list will be updated at that time.
Miami Dolphins Week 13 Injury Report
Terron Armstead, OT
Armstead (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday night’s matchup against the Packers. He was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday’s estimated practice report after opening the week with consecutive estimated DNPs, suggesting he could be trending toward playing Thursday night.
However, if the veteran offensive lineman is unable to suit up, expect Patrick Paul to step in and protect Tua Tagovailoa’s blindside.
Tyus Bowser, LB
Bowser (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night’s matchup against the Packers. The veteran linebacker was estimated as a non-participant throughout the Dolphins’ week of practice, so it’s no surprise he won’t suit up for Thanksgiving Day’s matchup in Green Bay.
Quinton Bell will likely serve as the Dolphins’ top backup edge rusher while Bowser is sidelined in Week 13.
Kendall Fuller, CB
Fuller (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night’s matchup against the Packers. The veteran corner was unable to practice all week after missing the Dolphins’ last two games due to a concussion, so it’s no surprise he won’t play in Miami’s Thanksgiving Day matchup in Green Bay.
Second-year pro Cam Smith and rookie Storm Duck are likely to see increased roles in the Dolphins’ secondary while Fuller remains sidelined in Week 13.
Tyreek Hill, WR
Tyreek Hill is still battling a wrist injury and was limited for the Miami Dolphins’ Monday walkthrough. Hill was downgraded to DNP on Tuesday, but that was due to personal reasons.
Hill is in no danger of missing Thursday’s game. He fully practiced on Wednesday, and the Dolphins formally removed him from their injury report. Hill will not carry a designation into Week 13.
The Dolphins don’t appear to have any long-term concerns about Hill’s wrist issue. He was considered a game-time decision for Week 10 but ultimately suited up. Hill has been limited for certain practice sessions since but hasn’t missed any game action.
Despite Tua Tagovailoa returning under center in Week 8, Hill still hasn’t managed an explosive fantasy performance. He’s been a top-25 receiver just once (Week 11) since Tua re-entered the lineup.
Anthony Walker, LB
Walker (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night’s matchup against the Packers. He is set to miss his first game of the season Thursday night after missing practice all week due to a hamstring injury sustained in the Dolphins’ Week 12 win over the Patriots.
Expect Tyrel Dodson to serve as one of Miami’s first-team inside linebackers on Thanksgiving Day in Walker’s stead.
Final Dolphins Injury Report
Terron Armstead, T (Knee) – Questionable; Tyus Bowser, LB (Knee/Calf) – Out; Calais Campbell, DT (Rest) – playing; Kendall Fuller, CB (Concussion) – Out; Jordan Poyer, S (Rest) – playing; Anthony Walker, LB (Hamstring) – out; Alec Ingold, FB (Calf) – playing; Benito Jones, DT (Shoulder) – playing; Tyreek Hill, WR (Wrist/Personal) – playing; Jalen Ramsey, CB (Knees) – playing; Isaiah Wynn, OL (Quad/Knee) – playing; Julian Hill, TE (Shoulder) – playing; Jevon Holland, S (Hand/Knee) – playing; Robert Jones, OL (Knee/Groin) – playing; Patrick McMorris, S (Calf) – playing.
Green Bay Packers Week 13 Injury Report
Jaire Alexander, CB
Alexander (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night’s matchup against the Dolphins.
Alexander is now in line to miss his fifth game of the season after sustaining a knee injury in the Packers’ Week 8 win over the Jaguars. Green Bay’s secondary could struggle without Alexander, especially against a Dolphins offense averaging 255.4 passing yards and 2.2 passing touchdowns per game since Tua Tagovailoa returned from injury in Week 8.
The Packers are expected to start Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine as their top outside corners in Thursday night’s contest.
Edgerrin Cooper, LB
Cooper (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night’s matchup against the Dolphins. The rookie linebacker from Texas A&M sustained a hamstring injury in practice last week and is now set to miss his second consecutive game in Week 13.
Isaiah McDuffie, who would typically step in for Cooper on Green Bay’s defense, is also listed as questionable with an ankle injury. If McDuffie is sidelined Thursday night, Eric Wilson will likely start alongside Quay Walker in the Packers’ linebacker corps.
Romeo Doubs, WR
Wideout Romeo Doubs did not practice this week and will not play on Thursday after suffering a concussion in Week 12.
“That’s unfortunate because I thought Romeo was really having himself a really great game,” Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said this week. “He came out, made some critical plays: that third-down long was pretty special where he almost got out the backside.
“He is very, very consistent. So, you know, if we don’t have him that’s a big loss, but we do feel like we have other guys. This can open up some other opportunities for some of these other guys.”
Wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks will step into Green Bay’s starting lineup if Doubs can’t play on Thursday.
Josh Jacobs, RB
Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs received a rest day on Monday and Tuesday. He fully practiced on Wednesday and will play on Thanksgiving Day.
Isaiah McDuffie, LB
McDuffie (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday night’s matchup against the Dolphins.
McDuffie was estimated as a limited participant at Wednesday’s walkthrough after beginning the week with back-to-back estimated DNPs, so he appears to be trending in the right direction ahead of Thanksgiving Day.
However, if the 25-year-old is unable to suit up in Week 13, expect Eric Wilson to serve as one of the Packers’ top inside linebackers.
