The Miami Dolphins lost a pair of running backs Sunday afternoon in their 35-17 loss to the division-leading New England Patriots.
Starter Damien Williams sustained a shoulder injury during the third quarter of Sunday’s game, and did not return.
Also, third-string running back Senorise Perry suffered a concussion on the opening kickoff after halftime.
The severity of Williams’ injury is unknown despite reports Monday morning that the fourth-year pro had sustained a dislocated shoulder, head coach Adam Gase told reporters.
“Right now we’ll keep evaluating,” Gase said. “I’m looking at it as day-to-day on him. He’s tough. What he went through yesterday was very painful. I’m not sure many guys would bounce back as quickly as he does.”

Gase didn't rule out Williams playing this week despite that fact that outlets have certainly indicated he seems unlikely to to go. Gase didn't get into the details of the injury but it still seems unlikely Williams plays in Week 13. Drake should be in store for a big workload if that's the case.
