Miami Dolphins starting tailback Lamar Miller practiced on Tuesday despite having suffered a right ankle injury in Sunday's 29-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills.

As long as he doesn't suffer a setback, Miller will likely carry the bulk of the Dolphins' tailback workload despite the re-signing of Daniel Thomas on Monday. But coach Joe Philbin actually hinted that rookie tailback Damien Williams might have his role on offensive expanded during the four weeks Knowshon Moreno is sidelined his dislocated left elbow.

"[Damien] didn't have a lot of carries in the game Sunday, but we thought the runs that he did have, he didn't look out of place," Philbin said. "So we'll see how it shakes out during the practice week."

ESPN Dolphin beat writer James Walker feels WR Mike Wallace's stock is on the rise:

Miami’s No. 1 receiver caught his second touchdown in two games. Sunday’s back-shoulder, one-handed grab was one of the most impressive catches of Week 2 throughout the entire NFL. Wallace finished with five receptions for 56 yards. But he’s finding the end zone more this season, which is important. Wallace also leads the Dolphins with 12 receptions.

Fantasy Impact:

We had heard in the offseason that the Dolphins wanted to make it a point to get the ball to Wallace. There were also issues with he and QB Ryan Tannehill connecting in the past but it looks like that's no longer a problem. With the loss of RB Knowshon Moreno, things may fall on Tannehill a bit more and it looks like Wallace could be a reliable target going forward.

Agent Tony Fleming told Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald that his client Daniel Thomas has agreed on a contract with the team. It’s a return engagement for the 2011 second-round pick, who spent the last three seasons with the Dolphins and was cut on the way to 53 players last month.

Fantasy Impact:

Thomas was cut by the Dolphins leading up to the season. The team lost running back Knowshon Moreno to a dislocated elbow early in Sunday’s loss to the Bills and then watched Lamar Miller hobble off with an ankle problem later in the game, leaving them short on backs, the story said. Miller is apparently OK but was held out of the game, a loss to the Bills in Week 2. Damien Williams got five carries for 19 yards and will likely play a role in Week 3.

The Dolphins’ offense was already without Pro Bowl center Mike Pouncey, arguably its most productive player. Now they’ll try to live life without RB Knowshon Moreno, undoubtedly their most product running back.

Most likely, this won’t be good.

The immediate effect will be two-fold: it’ll shift even more responsibility on the frighteningly inaccurate arm of quarterback Ryan Tannehill, and it’ll test the offensive line because the Dolphins will be in more second- and third-and-long situations, making the pass predictable and making the all-out pass rush almost inevitable.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say that the running game is now in the hands of Lamar Miller, but the author considers him a number-two back. He feels Miller is improved but doesn't break tackles and he's not a guy who can carry the ball 15-17 times a game. It certainly doesn't paint a great picture for the Dolphins run game, or for Miller fantasy owners. But the good news is Miller has some favorable rushing matchups straight through Week 8, so it's possible Miller at least has value as a RB3 or flex play.
