59 Chase Allen OLB

Miami placed Allen (undisclosed) on injured reserve Wednesday, the Dolphins' official site reports.

Allen suffered a foot injury during Week 4 against the Patriots and it will likely result in a season-ending injury. The team opened a roster spot with the move, adding Maurice Smith to the 53-man roster in his place.

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.
