Dolphins S Jevon Holland (knees) and LB Jerome Baker (knee) are active for tonight's game against the Bills. It's the second straight game for Holland after he returned last week from a four-game absence. Baker missed the past four games with his injury and remained limited in practice this week. We've added him to the Week 18 LB rankings and knocked David Long down.

Dolphins Edge Bradley Chubb tore his right ACL in Sunday's loss to the Ravens. That's the second such injury of his NFL career. Chubb tore his left ACL in Week 4 of 2019. His pass-rushing production dipped the following season. Chubb then struggled through 2021 as well, but the main issue there was an ankle injury that originated in summer and got aggravated in Week 2. The timing of this injury figures to challenge the 27-year-old's (28 in June) readiness for the 2024 season. Chubb's contract should lock him in with the Dolphins for at least one more season, but there's potential for him to be a cap casualty ahead of the 2025 campaign. We'll watch for updates on his return throughout the offseason. For Week 18 (and the playoffs) of this season, Melvin Ingram figures to see the biggest playing-time boost in Chubb's absence. He's not a high-level IDP option for Sunday night's regular-season finale against the Bills.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland (knees), CB Jalen Ramsey (knee), and CB Xavien Howard (hip, thumb) are active for today's game against the Ravens. Holland missed the past four games with the knee troubles and remained limited in practice this week. There's likely some risk of re-injury, but Miami also appears to have been cautious in bringing him back. Holland's ultimately worth using as planned in most IDP cases. Ramsey and Howard are no more than low-level IDP possibilities.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland (knees) is inactive for today's game against the Cowboys. Expect Brandon Jones to start in his place. Jones is a solid fill-in if you had been hoping to get Holland back. CB Xavien Howard (hip) is active after hitting the day questionable.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland (knees) and CB Xavien Howard (hip) are inactive for today's game against the Jets. With S DeShon Elliott (concussion) also out, that leaves Miami down three of its top four DBs. It's tough to trust QB Zach Wilson for fantasy production, but the setting looks excellent for WR Garrett Wilson at least. Edge Andrew Van Ginkel (oblique) is active after entering the day questionable.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland (knees) is questionable for the third straight game. He missed the past two contests. But this week marked the first time in that span that Holland managed limited practices every day. He told reporters Friday only that he's "day to day," "taking his time," and "coming along nicely," according to Joe Schad of the Palm Beach Post. We'll check Holland's status Sunday. It'll matter even more after Miami ruled out S DeShon Elliott with a concussion. S Brandon Jones should get his third straight start. Elijah Campbell stepped in after Elliott left last week's game. Missing both starting safeties would obviously make Miami's defense more vulnerable, especially a week after arguably the best game of Jets QB Zach Wilson's career. The Dolphins have also deemed CB Xavien Howard (hip) and Edge Andrew Van Ginkel (oblique) questionable. Howard missed one practice before returning to limited work Thursday and Friday. Van Ginkel was limited each day. We'll check their statuses Sunday morning.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland (knees) is inactive for tonight's game against the Titans. Brandon Jones should get a second straight start in his place. He posted just 5 tackles (4 solo) in the Week 13 win over Washington but added a QB hit. That came on Jones' only pass-rushing attempt so far this season, though. So he's not a strong bet for production in that category.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland (knees) is questionable for Monday night's game against the Titans. He managed limited practices Friday and Saturday this week. Holland got in just one limited practice in Week 13 before missing that game. We'll check his status Monday. Brandon Jones would fill in if Holland can't go.

The Dolphins have placed LB Jerome Baker (knee) on IR. That means he'll miss at least the next four games, which mark the final four weeks in most fantasy football seasons. So feel free to drop Baker, if you haven't done so already. David Long should lead Miami's non-edge LBs in playing time over the next month. LB Duke Riley checked in second after Baker left the Week 13 win over Washington.

Dolphins LB Jerome Baker suffered an MCL injury in Sunday's win over Washington. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Baker's considered "week to week at this point." That's not generally the way you describe a guy with a good chance to play this week. Assume Baker won't be available for next Monday's matchup with Tennessee. David Long led Miami LBs in playing time against Washington, with Duke Riley following. The team will also reportedly host LB Reuben Foster for a workout Wednesday, another bad sign for Baker's outlook.

Dolphins LB Jerome Baker left Sunday's game against the Commanders with a knee injury and has been ruled out. We'll see about his status heading into next Monday night's home date with the Titans. David Long is likely to lead the LB corps in playing time while Baker is out.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland (knees) is inactive for today's game against the Commanders. Brandon Jones should fill in and carries both tackle and sack upside against the league's busiest pass offense.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, listed with issues in both knees. That certainly doesn't seem to bode well, and Holland missed the week's first two practices before putting in a limited Friday. We'll check his status Sunday, but you should plan for another option in your IDP lineup.

The Dolphins are signing Edge Jason Pierre-Paul from the Saints' practice squad, in the wake of Edge Jaelan Phillips' season-ending Achilles' tear. That means Miami will need to keep JPP on the active roster. We'd still bet on the veteran playing a small role, though, likely trailing at least Bradley Chubb, Andrew Van Ginkel, and Emmanuel Ogbah in snaps among edge players.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland left in the second half of Friday's game against the Jets with a knee injury. The team deemed him questionable to return but was playing with a big lead. So it wouldn't make much sense for Miami to bring him back in. We'll watch for updates ahead of the Week 13 visit to Washington.

Dolphins Edge Jaelan Phillips left in the second half of Friday's game against the Jets. He left the field on a cart after what looked pretty clearly like a rupture of his right Achilles' tendon. Miami quickly reported it as an Achilles' injury. This looks likely to end Phillips' season and could challenge his start to 2024. We'll watch for more on the 24-year-old, who has one more year on his rookie contract and then the fifth-year option available for 2025. Andrew Van Ginkel filled in for Phillips when he missed time earlier this season and would likely step into a starting role for the rest of this year. He'll be worth a pickup in plenty of IDP leagues ahead of Week 13.

Dolphins CB Xavien Howard (groin) is active for today's game against the Chiefs. He's a low-level IDP option at best but available if you need him.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland cleared the concussion protocol this week and has not appeared on the injury report at all ahead of Sunday morning's game against the Chiefs in Germany. He's back to being a weekly IDP starting option whenever healthy. Holland sits inside the top 15 in our Week 9 DB rankings.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland (concussion) and CB Xavien Howard (groin) are inactive for today's game against the Patriots. That leaves Miami without half of its top four in the secondary. CB Jalen Ramsey is active, however, for the first time this season.

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.
