Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) is expected to play in today's game vs. the Patriots, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Mostert only got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, but we never sensed any concern about his availability for this one. He should be ready for his usual role.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland is questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots. He reported concussion symptoms Monday after a Sunday night collision with LB David Long. Holland returned to that game shortly after the collision. He did make it back for limited Thursday and Friday practice. We'll see whether Holland can get cleared this weekend.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (back) was limited in practice all week but isn’t listed on the final injury report. He’ll play vs. the Patriots this weekend but carries a bit more risk than usual after laboring through back trouble last week.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Patriots. He got in just limited practices on Thursday and Friday but said Friday that he’ll play against New England. We’ll get Miami’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (hip) is not listed on the final Week 8 injury report. He put in just limited practices on Thursday and Friday but will be a “full go” vs. the Patriots this weekend, according to NFL Networks’s Cameron Wolfe. Hill should stay glued into fantasy lineups.

The Dolphins expect to have CB Jalen Ramsey in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Patriots, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. That will make for a much quicker return than initially expected following his meniscus repair. Original reports had Ramsey expected to be out until December. It's tough to know whether the veteran corner will be ready for full playing time right away, as well as just how much impact he'll have on the Miami defense. But his return can only help a defense that ranks 24th in pass DVOA so far. Don't bet on Ramsey being an IDP factor right away, but he could get into deeper lineups after the Week 10 bye.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He should be fine for this weekend's game vs. the Patriots, but we'll get another update on Mostert tomorrow.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (hip) was officially limited in Thursday's practice. He told the media afterward that he'll play vs. the Patriots this weekend. Hill can stay penciled into Week 8 fantasy lineups for now. We'll see how he's listed on the final injury report tomorrow.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (hip) was back on the practice field on Thursday, according to NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe. Hill "ran routes, caught passes, and did his normal high-intensity cutting during drills," Wolfe adds. After some ominous stuff on Hill yesterday, it now looks like he has a good chance to play vs. the Patriots this weekend. We'll see how he's listed on the final injury report tomorrow.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. We didn't notice him get banged up in Sunday night's loss to the Eagles, and there's been no word on him dealing with a significant injury. It's worth noting that Mostert was held out on the Wednesday of Week 2 before practicing on Thursday and Friday and playing on Sunday. We'll see if he gets back on the field tomorrow.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (back) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. He missed a chunk of Sunday night's loss to the Eagles with back trouble but was eventually able to return. Miami needs Waddle with WR Tyreek Hill dealing with a hip injury.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill did not practice on Wednesday and is on the injury report with a hip. Miami media didn't spot him out on the practice field or in the locker room. "Somewhere down the line, we’re going to get Tyreek back," QB Tua Tagovailoa said, rather ominously. We'll look for more details on Hill's status, but there seems to be a real chance he misses this weekend's game vs. the Patriots.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill hauled 11 of 15 targets for 88 receiving yards with 1 TD vs. the Eagles on Sunday night. Through seven weeks, the speedy veteran has now accumulated a league-leading 902 receiving yards. His teammate Jaylen Waddle concluded Week 7 with 6 catches for 63 yards despite spending a large portion of the game sidelined with a back injury. Assuming good health for both wideouts, they should be treated as high-end fantasy starters in Week 8 vs. the Patriots.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert struggled on Sunday night, tallying 45 rushing yards on 9 carries. The veteran added 1 catch on 3 targets for 6 receiving yards in Week 7, but those efforts only bumped his PPR score up to a mediocre 6.1 points. Such is the risk when going up against an Eagles defense that ranked as the fourth-toughest matchup in adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs in 2023 entering this weekend. We expect Mostert to perform better in next week’s matchup against the Patriots.

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa completed 23 of 32 passes for 216 passing yards with 1 TD and INT apiece in Week 7’s loss vs. the Eagles. His 10.3 fantasy points (4-point per passing TD format) are the lowest of 2023 so far. Of course, part of these struggles can be attributed to the fact that WR Jaylen Waddle was sidelined for a decent portion of the contest with a back injury, but the strength of Philadelphia’s defense deserves credit here. Week 8’s divisional showdown vs. the Patriots should yield better results for Tagovailoa.

Dolphins LB David Long left in the second half of Sunday night's game against the Eagles to be evaluated for a concussion. He and teammate S Jevon Holland simultaneously left for a sideline check after colliding with each other on a play. Holland re-entered the game shortly thereafter, but Long went to the locker room for further evaluation. We'll watch for further word on his status.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle is questionable to return to Sunday night's game vs. the Eagles with a back injury. The TV broadcast said that Waddle had a heating pad on his back on the sidelines. We'll update his status when we know more.

Update: Waddle returned in the third quarter.

Dolphins RB Jeff Wilson (ribs, finger) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Eagles. We’re not expecting him to play a big role in his 2023 debut, especially considering how well RB Raheem Mostert has played. Wilson is a nice stash in season-long leagues, though, and a potential flier in one-game DFS contests.

Dolphins RB Jeff Wilson (ribs, finger) has been activated from IR. He's set to make his 2023 debut vs. the Eagles on Sunday night. We're only projecting Wilson for a handful of touches behind RB Raheem Mostert this week, but Wilson's role could grow quicky.

Browns LB Anthony Walker (concussion) is off the final injury report after a full Friday practice. That means he'll lose no further game time after leaving the Week 6 win over the 49ers with a concussion. We had assumed Walker would miss at least a game, but you can now find him low in LB3 territory in our Week 7 LB rankings.
