Dolphins TE Dion Sims in concussion protocol

Oct 17, 2016

The Miami Dolphins have two tight ends in the concussion protocol.

Coach Adam Gase said Monday Dion Sims did indeed suffer a concussion against the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday. He also said Jordan Cameron, who has missed three games while in the concussion protocol, remains in that status.

Sims, you'll recall, suffered a concussion in the regular-season opener at Washington in 2015 and missed a month as a result.

Fantasy Impact:

Gase said he, general manager Chris Grier and executive vice president Mike Tannenbaum will meet Monday night to figure out what direction to go with the situation. The team is down to Dominique Jones and MarQueis Gray as the team's two healthy tight ends.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
