Impact Fitzpatrick has been sidelined for each of the Dolphins' last two games due to a calf injury he sustained against the Steelers in Week 15.

Sits out practice Wednesday Fitzpatrick (calf) did not participate at practice Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Fitzpatrick left Monday's game at Pittsburgh in the fourth quarter after suffering a calf injury, and now his availability for Week 16 is in jeopardy.
