Top Tyrel Dodson News

  • 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.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Posts eighth stops in loss

    Dodson logged eight tackles (five solo) during Miami's loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

    Dodson finished second on the team in tackles behind Jordyn Brooks' 14 (nine solo) during the loss. The 27-year-old has already compiled a career-best 116 tackles (68 solo), including 4.0 sacks, and one interception across 14 outings, and he'll look to keep producing during the Week 17 matchup versus Tampa Bay.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Posts 10 stops in loss

    Dodson compiled 10 tackles (eight solo) during Miami's loss to the Steelers on Sunday.

    Dodson had a strong performance despite the loss, finishing second on the team in tackles behind Jordyn Brooks' 13. The 27-year-old is having the best season of his career, having already set new personal bests in both tackles and sacks, and he will look to add to his totals across the Dolphins' final three games of the campaign.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Not on injury report

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

    Dodson had to be evaluated for a hamstring issue during Sunday's win over the Jets, but it appears he's back to full health and ready for Monday's game against the Steelers. 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: Questionable to return

    Dodson (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Jets, Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald reports.

    Dodson sustained a hamstring injury early in the second half, and his status for the rest of the game is now in question. In his absence, K.J. Britt is likely set to take on the lion's share of Dodson's workload at middle linebacker.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Eight takedowns in win

    Dodson recorded eight total tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 21-17 win over New Orleans.

    Dodson was able to finish second on the team in stops behind fellow linebacker Jordyn Brooks (12), registering at least eight takedowns for the fourth game in a row. The 27-year-old is on pace to pass the career-high 107 tackles he posted in 2024, compiling 95 total tackles (53 solo), including 4.0 sacks, over 11 contests so far this season.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Does it all vs. Washington

    Dodson recorded 11 total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 16-13 overtime win over the Commanders.

    The 27-year-old registered his third double-digit tackle performance of the season and was the only Dolphin to sack Marcus Mariota in Sunday's overtime win. Dodson has now tallied 87 total tackles, including 4.0 sacks, one forced fumble and one pass defended over 10 appearances this season. He's expected to remain one of Miami's top defensive playmakers following the team's Week 12 bye.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Nine tackles in Week 10 win

    Dodson recorded nine tackles (five solo) in Miami's win over Buffalo on Sunday.

    Dodson's nine tackles were second on the team behind Jordyn Brooks' dozen. Outside of the tackles, Dodson did little else in the box score, though he was a big part of helping shut down Buffalo's offense. On the season, Dodson has piled up 76 tackles (56 solo), including 3.0 sacks, one pass breakup, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across nine appearances.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Logs five stops in blowout win

    Dodson recorded five total tackles (three solo) and recovered a fumble in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Falcons.

    The Texas A&M product finished tied for the second-most tackles on the Dolphins' defense Sunday, trailing Jordyn Brooks' 10-stop performance. Dodson has now recorded 59 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, one pass defended and one forced fumble over seven appearances this season. He's expected to continue starting alongside Brooks in Miami's linebacker corps in the Week 9 matchup against the Ravens on Thursday night.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Secures sack in return to action

    Dodson recorded eight total tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 31-6 loss to the Browns.

    Dodson made his return to action in Week 7 after missing one game while sidelined with a concussion. The linebacker was able to hit the ground running, getting quarterback Dillon Gabriel for a sack in the second quarter. Dodson has now registered 54 total tackles (34 solo), including 3.0 sacks, while also adding a pass defensed and a forced fumble over six games this year.

  • 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.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Will play if he clears protocol

    Dodson (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

    Dodson has yet to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol by gaining clearance from an independent neurologist, but head coach Mike McDaniel said Friday that the Dolphins are "hopeful and confident" that Dodson will do so after logging three full practices, per Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com. If Dodson exits concussion protocol, the starting middle linebacker will suit up Sunday.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Logs full practice Wednesday

    Dodson (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Dodson entered the league's concussion protocol following the Dolphins' Week 5 loss to the Panthers. He was not cleared to play against the Chargers in Week 6, but his ability to practice in full Wednesday indicates that he is progressing in his recovery. Dodson will have to be cleared by an independent neurologist in order to play against the Browns on Sunday.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Trending in right direction

    Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that Dodson remains in the concussion protocol but is trending in the right direction, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Dodson's absence proved a notable blow for Miami's defense during the team's narrow loss to the Chargers in Week 6, but he could have a chance to return to the lineup in time for Sunday's road matchup against the Browns. In order to retake the field, of course, Dodson will need to fully clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. If Dodson misses any more time, K.J. Britt will stand to again step into a starting role at middle linebacker.

  • Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Won't play Week 6

    Dodson (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

    Dodson remains in concussion protocol after being concussed in this past Sunday's loss to the Panthers. His next chance to take the field will come Oct. 19 in Cleveland, though Dodson would first have to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol and return to practice. K.J. Britt will likely see additional action in Dodson's absence.
