Breaking down the Miami Dolphins' final Week 8 injury report

The Miami Dolphins ruled out two players in their final week eight injury report ahead of their game against the Arizona Cardinals. Tua Tagovailoa and Tyreek Hill were also questionable, albeit under very different circumstances.

We'll start with Tagovailoa, who has already cleared concussion protocol, according to head coach Mike McDaniel. He will start against Arizona, listed as questionable only because he remains on injured reserve until he is activated Saturday and NFL rules require such a listing.

The news isn't so positive for Hill, who is dealing with a foot injury and didn't practice on Friday.

Hill's name was added to the injury report Thursday when he was listed as a limited participant.

Good news for the Dolphins' other starting wide receiver: Jaylen Waddle was removed from the injury report and did not receive a game status designation.

The same was true for Jevon Holland and Emmanuel Ogbah, who missed the Week 7 loss in Indianapolis with hand and biceps injuries, respectively. Likewise, defender Liam Eichenberg (shoulders) was removed from the injury report after training intensively on Friday.

The two players out Friday were CB Kader Kohou (neck) and DT Zach Sieler, whose eye injury may require surgery.

Quarterback Tyler Huntley was removed from the injury report on Friday, but that's because the Dolphins placed him on injured reserve (IR) due to his shoulder injury.

The Cardinals ruled out three players Friday, along with starting linebacker Dennis Gardeck, who was placed on injured reserve because of a knee injury.

Ruled out were DL Roy Lopez (ankle), CB Sean Murphy-Bunting (neck) and DL Darius Robinson (person/calf).

Lopez started at nose tackle for the Cardinals in their 17-15 win over the LA Chargers on Monday night.

Murphy-Bunting is the player whose tackle caused Hill's ankle injury last season, when Murphy-Bunting was still playing for the Tennessee Titans.

Robinson, Arizona's second of two first-round picks in the 2024 NFL Draft, has yet to play this season.

The only other Cardinals player with a game status designation is tackle Kelvin Bechum, who is dealing with a groin injury. After not working on Thursday, he was a full participant after training.

Rookie first-round pick Marvin Harrison Jr. was placed on the injury report Friday with a knee injury. Nevertheless, he was listed as a full participant and was not given a game status designation.
