Dolphins-Lions Halftime Observations
Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was perfect in his only drive against the Washington Commanders; Dolphins rookie edge defenders made splash plays.
Defensive tackle Zach Sieler didn’t dress. The same goes for receiver Tyreek Hill, edge rusher Jaelan Phillips and fullback Alec Ingold. Based off of the injury report alone, it appeared that the Dolphins could be in for back-to-back drubbings – even if edge rusher Chop Robinson returned.
The Dolphins played their starters for one drive in their first preseason game but may change strategy for the Lions.
As Robinson was down on the field, Miami defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver and fellow linebacker Jaelan Phillips rushed to his side before a cart was brought out.
Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle make progress from their respective injuries as the team takes on the Detroit Lions in a joint practice.
