As the Miami Dolphins finalize their roster, injuries have become a major hurdle during the offseason. A key injury designation used in the NFL is the physically unable to perform (PUP) list, which requires a player to remain inactive for the season’s first four games. Before the 53-man roster cutdown deadline (4 pm e.t. August 27), head coach Mike McDaniel announced three players who will miss games on the PUP list.
Miami Dolphins Reveal Three Players On Injury List
The Miami Dolphins will be without star edge rusher Bradley Chubb (ACL) guard Isaiah Wynn (lower body) and pass rusher Cameron Goode (knee) to begin their 2024 NFL season. Newly acquired wide receiver ODell Beckham Jr remains in PUP designation, however, Mike McDaniel was unsure how he would be listed to begin the season.
TBD (to be determined), TBD. More information required… There is not a scenario where he is going to jump out there with a cape on without practicing at all.” McDaniel said when asked about Beckham’s PUP consideration.
Injuries to wide receiver Anthony Schwartz, linebacker Cam Brown, and guard Kion Smith will keep them on injury reserve deep into the 2024 season. With further minor injuries to numerous other key players like Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, the Miami Dolphins will need as much availability as they can find.
Miami Dolphins Injury Outlook
As injuries influence the Miami Dolphins, their game plan must adjust as they enter the season. Bradley Chubb and Cameron Goode are both sidelined for at least four games, with the potential for a longer recovery. In their absence, the Dolphins will lean on veterans Jaelan Phillips and Emmanuel Ogbah, along with rookie duo Chop Robinson and Mo Kamara to anchor the edge positions.
On the offensive side, Isaiah Wynn’s injury also leaves a gap at left guard, where he’s expected to miss at least four games. Rob Jones is likely to step in as the starter. The Dolphins have not confirmed if Wynn’s absence is tied to the season-ending quadriceps injury he sustained last October, leaving some uncertainty surrounding his return.
As the Dolphins adapt to these early setbacks, depth and resilience will be key in their approach to the season.
