59 Chase Allen OLB

Allen (undisclosed) went unclaimed on waivers and reverted to injured reserve Wednesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Allen was waived/injured by the Dolphins on Tuesday and will now spend the rest of the season on IR, unless he reaches an injury settlement with the team.

Allen (undisclosed) was waived/injured by the Dolphins on Tuesday, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

The Dolphins made a series of moves to part ways with veteran players Tuesday, Allen included. If he passes through waivers unclaimed, Allen will land on injured reserve where he'll remain for the rest of the season barring an injury settlement.

Miami placed Allen on injured reserve Wednesday due to an undisclosed issue.

Allen was sidelined in Week 4 with a foot injury, but it's unclear if the problem he's currently dealing with is related. In any case, Allen's move to IR means that he'll be sidelined for at least eight weeks, making it likely his season is over. The team opened a roster spot with the move, adding safety Maurice Smith to the 53-man unit in Allen's place.

Allen (foot) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

Allen's lack of availability comes as no surprise, considering that he has not participated in practice since suffering a foot injury during Miami's Week 3 win over the Raiders. As long as Allen remains sidelined, expect Stephone Anthony to receive increased rotational snaps.

Allen is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Raiders due to a foot injury, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

Allen's rotational linebacker role will likely be shouldered by Stephone Anthony as long as the 25-year-old remains sidelined. If Allen is unable to return to the field Sunday, expect an update on his health after the game.

Allen (concussion) isn't listed on the Dolphins' injury report Wednesday.

Allen previously exited Sunday's game against Tampa Bay to be evaluated for a concussion, but it appears he was never placed in the protocol. As a result, he should be good to go for the Week 12 matchup with the Patriots.

Allen is being checked for a concussion during Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Alain Poupart of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Allen plays mainly in special teams scenarios, compiling just four tackles (three solo) in his last six contests. The undrafted rookie will hand over his reserve duties to Stephone Anthony for the time being, as the Dolphins only have four healthy linebackers remaining.

Allen will start at linebacker Sunday against the Chargers due to Lawrence Timmons (coach's decision) being listed as inactive, Chris Perkins of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.

The undrafted rookie will make his NFL debut at strongside linebacker Sunday. There is a serious lack of depth in the Dolphins' linebacker corps, but if Allen doesn't perform well, Justin March-Lillard is the only other option to fill in. It'll be interesting to see how Miami's defense fares since it only has one truly experienced, active linebacker in Kiko Alonso.
