Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel expressed optimism over the team's injury status, highlighting that tackles Terron Armstead and Kendall Lamm are likely to play against the Jets. He emphasized Lamm's recent progress, noting, "Kendall had a very good week in terms of getting his body right." McDaniel's confidence extends to cornerback Kendall Fuller, who is hopeful to clear concussion protocol, indicating a broader positive outlook for Sunday’s matchup.
Armstead's ongoing knee issues haven’t sidelined him completely, as McDaniel pointed out that he has been participating despite the pain. The coach mentioned, "He’s worked through it and has shown resilience. We’re hopeful that his experience can greatly help us this week against a tough opponent." This puts special emphasis on the significance of his leadership on the field.
McDaniel also addressed the status of other injured players. He noted the positive trajectory for cornerback Kader Kohou and linebacker Anthony Walker, saying, "Assuming there are no setbacks during Friday’s practice, we are hopeful to have both available for Sunday." This reflects a cautious optimism as they aim to strengthen the defense against New York.
When discussing the outside linebackers Bradley Chubb and Cam Goode, McDaniel said, "It's a lot to expect them to return this week, but we haven’t made a final decision yet. Chris Grier and I will discuss this after the practice." This illustrates the careful approach the team is taking with player recoveries and reaffirming their importance to the forthcoming games.
