Miami Dolphins Get Huge Injury Update On Defensive Star

After a promising start to the 2023 NFL season, the Miami Dolphins faced challenges in the latter half, culminating in a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the Wild Card round.

Throughout the regular season, the Dolphins showcased an unstoppable offensive force led by Tyreek Hill and Raheem Mostert. However, their offensive prowess couldn’t fully offset the defensive struggles that plagued the team.

While Miami’s defense showed resilience for much of the season, injuries took a toll, particularly along the edge when outside linebacker Jaelan Phillips suffered an Achilles injury in November.

Phillips, a key player known for his pass-rushing skills, left a notable void in the defensive lineup.

Encouragingly, Phillips has been making significant strides in his rehabilitation. He recently expressed confidence in his readiness for the upcoming 2024 NFL season, as reported by Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald.
