It's starting to look less like the Miami Dolphins could have both of their top running backs for arguably their biggest home game of the season. 

The Dolphins released their second injury report of the week on Tuesday, and both Raheem Mostert and De'Von Achane missed practice for the second straight day. 

The report notes that the Monday report was an estimation and Tuesday's was a walk through.  The fact that Tuesday was a walk through and not a full practice and neither player participated is particularly worrisome. 

Regarding the remainder of the report, rookie WR Malik Washington appears set to miss a second straight game while dealing with a quad injury.  Jalen Ramsey and Jaelan Phillips both have been limited, but that's not surprising.  Surely the team is taking it easy with both of their stars, who played more snaps than many predicted on Sunday against the Jaguars.  Liam Eichenberg also popped up on the report this week with a shoulder injury and has been limited, but he finished the game on Sunday, so it seems likely he'll play on Thursday. 

We'll see if Mostert and/or Achane can log at least a limited practice on Wednesday and show they've got a shot to suit up on Thursday night against the team that swiped the division title from them eight months ago.
