Team news: Miami Dolphins | Page 22

Don't look now, but Hunter Henry is starting to heat up a bit. Over the last two weeks, Henry has been able to find his way into the end zone and Sunday's win proved to be the best statistical outing of his Patriots career.

Numbers-wise, Henry was targeted by Mac Jones a team-high eight times and hauled in six receptions for 75 yards, which included a 13-yard touchdown that evened the score up at 22. While it has taken Henry some time to truly be an impactful piece in this New England offense, he has been a reliable outlet for Jones from the jump, catching 20 of his 26 targets on the year. This combination should only get stronger as the season goes along and both players get more comfortable within the offense, the story went on to say.

Dolphins coach Brian Flores said Tua Tagovailoa threw today and he's hopeful he can practice this week.

This was supposed to be the plan all along, a Week 6 return, and looks to be good news for the Dolphins that Tua is on track. The Dolphins need a win and will travel to London to take on the Jaguars. Fantasy owners should know Tua's status for Week 6 well in advance, especially with it being an early morning game.

Titans WR Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (hamstring) is questionable for Week 5 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

NWI was expected to step up Week 4 with Julio Jones and A.J. Brown out. Now he is just trying to play after Week 4's letdown.

Titans WRs Julio Jones (hamstring) and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday according to Jim Wyatt of the Tennessee Titans. WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) was limited.

The receiver position for Tennessee is a mess and difficult to put much faith in until Friday's injury report.

Seahawks WR D'Wayne Eskridge (concussion) will miss Week 5 against the Los Angeles Rams according to John Boyle of the Seattle Seahawks.

This is three straight weeks where Eskridge is out because of a concussion. All that matters at the moment is his health.

Dolphins WR Will Fuller broke a finger in Sunday’s loss and is expected to be week-to-week, sources say. More bad news after a rough day.

Fuller's status is in doubt for Week 5 and possibly longer. The loss of Fuller should be good news for Waddle who sits behind Parker in the pecking order. Next up are Wilson and Williams who could battle for WR3 snaps. The Dolphins have struggled to push the ball down field with Jacoby Brissett at QB.

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) is expected to return to the lineup in two weeks, October 17, against the Jaguars in London.

Tagovailoa is on injured reserve with that rib injury he suffered in Week 2 against the Bills. Jacoby Brissett will continue to start for the Dolphins in today’s game against the Colts and next week against the Buccaneers. Brissett went 32/49 for 215 yards and was sacked twice last week in Miami’s overtime loss to the Raiders.

Seahawks WR D'Wayne Eskridge (concussion) is doubtful for Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers.

It is better than being ruled out, but Eskridge's concussion will force him to miss another week.

Titans WRs A.J. Brown and Julio Jones will miss Week 4 at the New York Jets.

Massive losses for the Titans passing game. A lot of the workload will fall on unproven players such as Josh Reynolds, Chester Rogers, and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine. All fall into WR3/4 territory with Derrick Henry the workhorse in the run and passing game.

With the Texans reportedly softening their position regarding the expectations for a Deshaun Watson trade, the Dolphins could potentially meet the reduced asking price.

The Eagles, for example, have been linked to Watson for months. As they attempt to determine whether Jalen Hurts can be a franchise quarterback (last night’s game undercuts that idea), the window for a 2021 trade will be closing on November 2. That’s only five weeks away.

A 17-game season makes it harder for a team to fold the tents on 2021 by the Tuesday after Week 8, the story said. Within five weeks, it’s entirely possible that one or more teams will be ready to make the move for Watson before Nov. 2, the story went on to say. With Tagovailoa dealing with an injury and Hurts struggling Monday night against the Cowboys, the story speculates the Dolphins and Eagles are teams to watch. And other teams may get involved as well.
