"MIAMI GARDENS - Miami Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel had injury updates on key players Friday morning before the team's final practice ahead of Sunday's home opener against the New England Patriots. Wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is good to go after being limited in practice this week with a shoulder injury suffered in last week's season-opening loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Right tackle Austin Jackson is indeed out, according to McDaniel, after aggravating a toe injury in the opener."
"Without Jackson, Larry Borom is in line to start at right tackle, as Kion Smith is already replacing James Daniels, who was placed on injured reserve with a pectoral injury this week, at right guard. Tight end Darren Waller will miss a second game this season, as McDaniel also ruled him out. Waller had a hip strain setback ahead of the opener against the Colts after working his way back coming out of retirement."
"Dolphins nose tackle Benito Jones, who has an oblique injury, is also out, according to McDaniel. Running back Jaylen Wright returned to practice Thursday for the first time since suffering a knee injury three weeks ago. Wright is not being ruled entirely out as of Friday morning, but McDaniel indicated he's unlikely to play. McDaniel said earlier in the week cornerback Storm Duck would miss multiple weeks with his ankle injury sustained in Indianapolis."
