Head coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Eichenberg (undisclosed) still needs "several weeks" to return from his injury, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Eichenberg missed all of training camp due to an undisclosed injury, which led to the Dolphins moving the fifth-year offensive lineman to the reserve/PUP list in late August. The nature of his injury hasn't been disclosed, but it appears Eichenberg will not see the field until late in the 2025 season, if at all.

Dolphins' Liam Eichenberg: Moves to reserve/PUP list
Rotowire
Eichenberg (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/PUP list by the Dolphins on Tuesday.
The designation means that the offensive guard will have to miss at least the first four regular-season games. Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said in July that Eichenberg would have to miss several weeks, per David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, though at that point he was still expected back for the start of the regular season. The 2021 second-round pick started 14 of 17 regular-season games for Miami in 2024 and has started 53 of the 61 games he's played in during his career, regular season and postseason.

It's unclear what type of issue Eichenberg is dealing with, but he's currently unable to practice. He can be activated at any point during the preseason. Eichenberg was a starter last season but is slated for a backup role in 2025 after the Dolphins signed James Daniels (Achilles) in March.

Rotowire
The Dolphins re-signed Eichenberg to a one-year contract Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Eichenberg appeared in all 17 regular-season games for the Dolphins last season, making 14 starts. He played all 1,036 of his offensive snaps at right guard. Miami signed RG James Daniels in free agency earlier in the week, but both he and Eichenberg have experience along the interior of the offensive line. Fixing the offensive line is a priority for the Dolphins this offseason.

Dolphins' Liam Eichenberg: Practices in full Wednesday
Rotowire
Eichenberg (undisclosed) did not appear on Wednesday's injury report, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Eichenberg was sidelined during joint practices against the Texans in mid-August, as Miami coach Mike McDaniel said he was dealing with a "nagging injury." However, it appears this issue won't limit the 25-year-old heading into Sunday's season opener against the Chargers. Eichenberg should maintain his starting spot at left guard to begin the 2023 campaign.

Eichenberg is dealing with a "nagging injury," according to head coach Mike McDaniel. It's unclear how long the 25-year-old has been dealing with the injury or the specifics of it, but he'll focus more on his recovery, as opposed to preparing for Saturday's preseason game against Houston.
