Dolphins look to be without several key players in Week 7 vs. Colts

The final injury report has arrived for the Miami Dolphins , and it doesn’t paint a good picture going into their Week 7 game against the Indianapolis Colts , as several prominent players were added to the injury report and given gameday statuses that put their availability into question for the team heading into an important game for the rest of their season.

Dolphins’ safety Jevon Holland was a limited participant in practice all week, and has officially been listed as doubtful for the game on Sunday with a hand injury. Wide receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. was a new addition to the injury report today, listed as a non-participant with what’s listed as a “Hamstring/Personal” issue. He is one of three new additions to the injury report after Friday’s practice, and has officially been listed as questionable for the game.

Along with Beckham Jr., the Dolphins added long snapper Blake Ferguson to the injury report, also listed as “personal” and right tackle Austin Jackson with a back injury. Both players, along with Beckham, are listed as questionable for the game. These injuries could have a profound impact on the Dolphins this week.

Miami has struggled to find their way with their passing attack this season, particularly when it comes to finding a third receiver behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Beckham, Jr. was supposed to be that guy, but he has yet to make an impact on the team. He was on the field for the first time in Week 5 against the Patriots , but was not part of the game plan, and it looks like that may be the case again this week – if he’s on the field at all.

Along with the issues at wide receiver, the Dolphins have struggled – seemingly for years – along the offensive line, and the last thing the team needs is to lose their right tackle, Jackson, when their left tackle, Terron Armstead, has a shaky injury history of his own.

On the positive side of the injury report for Miami, it looks like they will have one of their primary running backs – and their de facto third receiving option – back, as De’Von Achane was a full participant in practice all week and has no injury status heading into Sunday’s game.
