Tyreek Hill Underwhelms Versus Jets

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill had an underwhelming Week 18 outing versus the New York Jets. The former Chiefs star finished with just five targets, two catches, and 23 yards.

Jeff Wilson Jr. Leads Backfield In Week 18 Win

Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. rushed 16 times for 72 yards during Sunday's playoff-clinching win over the New York Jets.

Skylar Thompson Leads Dolphins To Week 18 Win

Miami Dolphins quarterback Skylar Thompson had an uninspiring Week 18 in which he went 20-for-31 with 152 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero interceptions.

The victory punched the Dolphins' ticket to the playoffs, where they hope to have […]

Dolphins Defense Forces Safety In Week 18 Win

The Miami Dolphins' defense looked solid in Week 18, holding the New York Jets to just six points on two field goals. The unit failed to register a turnover or sack but did tally a safety on a botched Jets lateral as time expired. Miami has now clinched a playoff berth and will face the […]

Raheem Mostert Downgraded To Out

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (thumb) exited Week 18 against the New York Jets and won't return. The 30-year-old rushed 11 times for 71 yards before departing the contest. Jeff Wilson Jr. should lead Miami's backfield the rest of the way.

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards (head) has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 18 against the Cincinnati Bengals. He finishes the day with four rushes for 16 yards.
