It's a who's who list of names on the Miami Dolphins' injury report on Wednesday ahead of the Dolphins' return matchup with the New England Patriots. Unfortunately, perhaps the biggest of names appeared in the "did not practice" category for Miami.
WR Tyreek Hill missed practice on Wednesday due to a hip injury.
Hill's availability for Sunday appears to legitimately be in question. On Wednesday, QB Tua Tagovailoa talked about the possibility of Hill being out on Sunday. He described it as "tough", but acknowledged that the show must go on and that Miami has another very capable receiver in Jaylen Waddle.
Miami's other primary offensive weapon, running back Raheem Mostert, also missed practice with an ankle injury. Waddle was also limited with a back injury that he sustained against the Eagles, which left him visibly in pain during the game.
The offense also lost LG Isaiah Wynn for at least four games, as he was placed on injured reserve with a quad injury. Nik Needham was activated from the PUP list, in a rare bit of good injury news.
However, the news is bleak for the rest of the Dolphins' secondary, as Jevon Holland is in concussion protocol, and the Dolphins have five cornerbacks who were limited with various injuries on Wednesday.
River Cracraft also began practicing, starting his 21-day window to return from a shoulder injury.
