Jerome Baker looks likely to miss time

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.

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 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 LB Jerome Baker (knee) is active for today's game against the Texans. There's clear upside to the matchup but also the chance Baker sees his playing time limited after missing Week 8 with the knee injury.

Dolphins LB Jerome Baker is questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans. He's dealing with the same knee injury that knocked him out of Week 7 early and then kept him out of last week's game against the Bills. We'll check his status Sunday morning.

Dolphins LB Jerome Baker (knee) is inactive for today's game against the Bills. When Baker left last week's game early, Sam Eguavoen led Miami LBs with 84% playing time. Andrew Van Ginkel (76%) and Elandon Roberts (70%) followed. There's no safe bet in the corps for IDP lineups.
