Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Sacks Mayfield in Week 17 victory
Dodson recorded five tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Dolphins' 20-17 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Dodson was credited with a seven-yard sack of Baker Mayfield late in the third quarter, when the veteran signal caller recovered his own fumble and ran out of bounds. That brought Dodson up to 5.0 sacks through 15 regular-season games, which surpasses his total of 4.5 sacks across the two prior seasons combined. His 121 combined tackles on the year is a career high, and this Sunday's AFC East tilt against the Patriots marks his final opportunity to add to his total this season.

Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Draws questionable tag
Dodson (chest) practiced in full Friday but is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Dodson is listed as having logged a DNP/LP/FP practice slate leading up to Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, which seemingly bodes well for his chances of gaining clearance for Week 17. The starting middle linebacker is managing a chest injury sustained Week 16 versus Cincinnati. His availability, or lack thereof, will be made official roughly 90 minutes ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Estimated as limited Thursday
Dodson (chest) was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday's estimated report, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Dodson is working through a chest injury that he likely picked up during the Dolphins' Week 16 loss to the Bengals. He would likely avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers if he were to practice in full Friday. Dodson has accumulated 116 combined tackles through 14 regular-season games, which is the first time in his six-year NFL career that he has reached the tackling century mark.

Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Dealing with chest injury
Dodson (chest) was a non-participant in practice Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Dodson logged a 95 percent defensive snap share in Sunday's loss to Cincinnati, but it appears he also picked up a chest injury. Beginning the week as a DNP isn't a great sign, but it's unclear how serious the issue is. Dodson will likely need to return to practice in some capacity over the next two days to have a chance of suiting up against Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Dodson (hamstring) is not listed on Thursday's injury report, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Prior to being hampered by a hamstring injury Week 14, Dodson had strung together four consecutive games with at least a 95 percent snap share.

Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Cleared to play vs. Cleveland
Dodson has cleared the league's concussion protocol and is available to play against the Browns on Sunday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Dodson was unable to play against the Chargers in Week 6 due to a concussion, but he has been cleared by an independent neurologist to play in Sunday's road tilt. Prior to his injury, he accumulated 46 tackles (29 solo), including 2.0 sacks, one pass defense and one forced fumble across five regular-season games. Dodson's return means K.J. Britt -- who logged 13 total tackles in Week 6 -- will likely see his snap count on defense decrease.
