The Denver Broncos and Miami Dolphins are set to square off on Sunday at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida.

Both teams will be without some starters and key players for Week 3, but they'll look to make do with the players they have. The absences for the Dolphins are certainly less glaring than those for the Broncos. 

Here's a quick breakdown of the inactive players for this afternoon's game.

Broncos:

  • OLB Frank Clark
  • S Justin Simmons
  • S JL Skinner
  • DE Elijah Garcia
  • C Alex Forsyth
  • OLB Ronnie Perkins

Dolphins:

  • QB Skylar Thompson
  • WR Jaylen Waddle
  • WR Erik Ezukanma
  • CB Cam Smith
  • OT Kion Smith
  • TE Tyler Kroft
  • RB Salvon Ahmed

Observations:

Riley Moss is active for Denver this week, but that means they're going very light at the safety position with no Simmons or Skinner.

Skylar Thompson will be the emergency No. 3 QB for the Miami Dolphins. 

No Jaylen Waddle would be a back-breaking blow for the Miami Dolphins if they didn't also have Tyreek Hill, who is active. 

Still no Cam Smith this week for Miami.
