92 Zach Sieler DE

Sieler signed an extension through the 2023 season with the Dolphins on Monday.

The 25-year-old was a seventh-round pick by the Ravens in 2018, but he was picked up off waivers by the Dolphins last year and has four starts since joining the team. Sieler has 26 total tackles and 1.5 sacks this season.

Sieler is expected to start at outside linebacker Sunday against the 49ers following news that Shaq Lawson (shoulder) has been ruled out, Omar Kelly of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Sieler started one game for the Dolphins in 2019 and will make his second career start Sunday. The 2018 seventh-round pick has recorded eight tackles and a half sack through four games this season, and he'll be tasked with pressuring Jimmy Garoppolo in Sunday's matchup.

The Dolphins activated Sieler from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

Sieler spent just under a full week on the reserve list, but he's now gained clearance to rejoin teammates. The Dolphins are counting on him to step up as a regular contributor in the defensive end rotation this season.

The Dolphins have placed Sieler on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

The list was created for players who either test positive for COVID-19 or have been quarantined after having been in close contact with an infected person or persons. Sieler, who logged eight tackles and a sack in seven games for the Dolphins in 2019, is slated to be a member of the team's defensive line rotation this coming season.

Sieler (ankle/thumb) is officially active for Sunday's tilt against the Patriots.

Despite practicing in just a limited fashion throughout the week, Sieler will suit up for the season finale. With Taco Charlton (ankle) sidelined, along with Avery Moss, Sieler could see a slight uptick in snaps for the contest.

Sieler (ankle/thumb) has been given a questionable tag for Sunday's season finale against the Patriots, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports.

This designation for Sieler is unsurprising, as he practiced in limited fashion all week. If he ends up being unable to go, look for Avery Moss to handle the majority of the defensive end depth responsibilities.

Sieler (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

The 24-year-old defensive end has suited up in five games this year between the Ravens and Dolphins, recording four tackles. Sieler could see additional work this week with Taco Charlton (ankle) and Avery Moss (coach's decision) inactive.

Sieler (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals but should be healthy to play, Safid Deen of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Sieler is buried deep on the Dolphins' defensive line depth chart, so his presence likely will not have a huge effect on Sunday's game, but it looks like he will be active regardless.

Sieler (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Jets, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

Sieler joined the Dolphins off waivers Tuesday. He could have the opportunity to play a depth role on the defensive line down the stretch.

Sieler was awarded to the Dolphins off waivers Thursday.

Sieler was cut loose by the Ravens Wednesday but was quickly claimed off waivers. He appeared in four games with Baltimore and should end the season by serving as depth along the Dolphins' defensive line.

Sieler was waived by the Ravens on Wednesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Sieler was promoted from the practice squad in early October and appeared in four games during his two months on the 53-man roster. The 2018 seventh-round pick is a candidate to rejoin the practice squad, if he clears waivers.

The Ravens promoted Sieler to the active roster Saturday.

Sieler only played in two games with the Ravens last year after they took him in the seventh round of the 2018 NFL Draft. He's spent the first four games of this season on the Ravens' practice squad, but he'll now add depth for Sunday's game versus the Steelers since Brandon Williams (knee) is questionable.
