Injury Updates, Kickoff Time, and More in Thursday’s Dolphins Notebook

The Dolphins have three players who have missed the first two practices of the week

Three Miami Dolphins players missed practice for the second day in a row, but not all situations are the same.

While Robert Hunt (hamstring) and Austin Jackson (oblique) should be considered questionable for Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys, running back Raheem Mostert’s situation is likely to be different.

The new Dolphins single-season touchdown and running touchdown leader has been out the last two days with knee/ankle/vet rest problems. Mostert did speak to media after practice, which is unusual for injured players, so it’s reasonable to presume his absence was due to “vet rest” rather than a knee or ankle injury.

WR Tyreek Hill (ankle), RB De’Von Achane (toe), and CB Xavien Howard (thigh) were the other three players who did not practice on Wednesday but worked out on Thursday.

Safety DeShon Elliott took part in full practice on Thursday and is no longer in the concussion protocol.

T Terron Armstead (knee/ankle), S Jevon Holland (knees), CB Kader Kohou (hip), DE Emmanuel Ogbah (hamstring), CB Cam Smith (hamstring), TE Durham Smythe (ankle), and LB Andrew Van Ginkel (oblique/nose) were all limited for the second day in a row.

Finally, guard Lester Cotton popped up on the injury report with a hip issue, but he was listed as a full participant.

The Cowboys also had three players who didn’t practice for a second consecutive day, and like the Dolphins their group includes two starting offensive linemen: G Zack Martin (thigh) and T Tyron Smith (back).
