Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson clears concussion protocol ahead of game vs. Browns
"CLEVELAND - Miami Dolphins linebacker Tyrel Dodson cleared concussion protocol and will be available for Sunday's game against the Browns in Cleveland. The Dolphins, as they traveled Saturday, removed Dodson from the team's injury report. Coach Mike McDaniel said Friday he was "hopeful and confident" Dodson would clear the NFL's five-step protocol to return to play from a concussion before the game, but Friday came and went without such a development. Miami's middle linebacker suffered the concussion in the Oct. 5 loss to the Carolina Panthers and missed last week's home defeat to the Los Angeles Chargers."
"He had completed full practice participation in all three of the week's sessions before the game against the Browns. When the Dolphins were without Dodson against the Chargers, K.J. Britt filled in and led the team in tackles, but Dodson figures to return to his starting role. In last season's December win in Cleveland, Dodson had an interception. Still questionable on the Dolphins' injury report is cornerback Storm Duck with his lingering ankle injury."
"Defensive back Elijah Campbell (quadriceps) was ruled out Friday. On Saturday, the Dolphins elevated outside linebacker Quinton Bell and cornerback Kendall Sheffield from the practice squad to the game-day roster for Sunday against the Browns."
