Clelin Ferrell: Let go from practice squad
Rotowire
The Dolphins released Ferrell from their practice squad Monday.
Ferrell had already been elevated the maximum three times this season, so Miami would have needed to sign him to the active roster for him to be eligible to play again.

Dolphins' Chop Robinson: Clears concussion protocol
Rotowire
Robinson has cleared the concussion protocol and is available to play in Sunday's matchup with the Chiefs, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
The defensive end likely suffered the concussion in Week 1 against the Raiders and then missed the Dolphins' Week 2 clash with the 49ers. Robinson has suffered three concussions in the last two seasons and told reporters he would wear the Guardian Cap on his helmet this week versus Kansas City, per Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post. The Miami Herald's Barry Jackson reported that Robinson has suffered "at least" five concussions in this three-year NFL career.

Dolphins' Robert Beal: DNP Wednesday
Rotowire
Beal (hamstring) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.
Beal exited the Dolphins' Week 2 loss to the 49ers early with a hamstring injury. The defensive end's inability to practice at the start of Week 3 means the injury could be more than a minor strain. Unless Beal can upgrade his practice participation by Friday, there is little to no chance the defensive end will suit up for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Dolphins' Chop Robinson: Logs full practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Robinson (concussion) was a full participant at practice Wednesday, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.
Robinson was sidelined during Sunday's loss at San Francisco as he recovered from a concussion, but he appears to be trending in a positive direction ahead of Week 3. He presumably still has to get medical clearance from an independent neurologist before he can be taken off Miami's injury report.

Dolphins' Jordyn Brooks: Quiet performance in Week 2
Rotowire
Brooks recorded three total tackles (two solo) during Sunday's 35-13 loss to San Francisco.
Brooks uncharastically quiet, registering his fewest tackles in a game since Week 17 of the 2024 campaign. The linebacker notched a career-high 183 total tackles over 17 regular-season games in 2025, and he'll likely be more busy Week 3 versus the Chiefs.

Dolphins' Robert Beal: Questionable to return
Rotowire
Beal (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the 49ers.
Beal is dealing with a hamstring injury, and as a result, he may not be able to return to the team's Week 2 battle with San Francisco. In his absence, Malik Herring and Clelin Ferrell will stand to see an increase in workload on the defensive line.

Harrison was ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the 49ers due to his injury.

Dolphins' Chop Robinson: Unable to practice Thursday
Rotowire
Robinson (concussion) did not participate at the Dolphins' practice Thursday.
Robinson went backwards with his participation after logging a limited session to open the week Wednesday. The defensive lineman is dealing with a concussion, and he appears unlikely to be available Sunday versus the 49ers. If he is unable to play, Malik Herring and Robert Beal would both be candidates to draw a start in Robinson's place on the defensive line.

Dolphins' Chop Robinson: Working through concussion protocol
Rotowire
Robinson (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Robinson likely sustained the injury during the Dolphins' 27-13 loss to the Raiders in Week 1, when he logged one assisted tackle and played 42 defensive snaps. Even if he logs a full practice over the next two days, Robinson would need to pass an evaluation by an independent neurologist to exit the league's concussion protocol and be available for Sunday's road tilt against the 49ers.

Dolphins' Jordyn Brooks: Quality effort in loss
Rotowire
Brooks finished with nine tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Raiders.
The Dolphins had trouble getting things going in Week 1. However, Brooks played well, finishing third on his team in total tackles behind Chris Johnson and Jacob Rodriguez. The 28-year-old is coming off a quality 2025 campaign, amassing 183 total tackles, one less than his career high of 184, adding 3.5 sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. He agreed to a three-year extension with the Dolphins in July 2026.

Dolphins' Jacob Rodriguez: Leading tackler in regular-season debut
Rotowire
Rodriguez recorded 14 tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 27-13 loss at Las Vegas.
The Raiders were able to run the ball 37 times in Week 1, setting Rodriguez up for a memorable first regular-season game as a pro. He already profiles as a strong IDP option in most formats as the Dolphins look to a Week 2 matchup against San Francisco.
