Matt Hasselbeck on Josh Allen-Lamar Jackson, Justin Fields, Lions' offensive woes | FULL INTERVIEW | The Herd

James Daniels - In line to miss time Head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday that Daniels is expected to miss a couple of weeks due to a pectoral injury, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Daniels pectoral injury was feared to be season-ending, so McDaniel's comments Monday come as great news for Miami. The veteran offensive lineman signed a three-year, $24 million deal with the Dolphins in March after spending the last three years of his career in Pittsburgh. Kion Smith is likely to step in and start at right guard in Daniels' stead.

Benito Jones - Considered week-to-week Head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday that Jones is considered week-to-week with an oblique injury, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The Ole Miss product exited Sunday's loss to the Colts after sustaining an oblique injury, limiting him to just 23 total snaps (18 defensive and five on special teams). Jones was relatively unimpactful while on the field in Week 1, failing to record a stat prior to his exit. He likely needs to log at least one limited practice session throughout the week to have a chance of playing in Miami's Week 2 matchup against the Patriots.

Charvarius Ward - In concussion protocol Head coach Shane Steichen told reporters that Ward is in concussion protocol after displaying symptoms Monday morning, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Despite being in concussion protocol Monday morning, Ward played 100 percent of the Colts' defensive snaps in Week 1, recording six total tackles. The veteran corner signed a three-year, $60 million deal with Indianapolis this past offseason after spending the last three years of his career with the 49ers, earning second-team All-Pro honors in 2023. His practice participation throughout the week will likely serve as the best indication of whether he can suit up for a Week 2 matchup against the Broncos on Sunday.

Storm Duck - Out indefinitely Head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday that Duck (ankle) is expected to miss a couple weeks, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Duck sustained an ankle injury in the first half of Sunday's blowout loss to the Colts, but it appears he avoided a season-ending issue. The second-year corner played 29 defensive snaps before exiting, recording three total tackles and one pass defended. Miami's secondary was already bleak heading into the season, so Rasul Douglas and Ethan Bonner (hamstring) will likely have their hands full while filling in for Duck.
