Miami Dolphins player notes for Oct 13th, 2018


Ryan Tannehill – Noteworthy – Injury
QB Ryan Tannehill waslisted as questionable for Sunday’s home game at Hard Rock Stadium against the Chicago Bears because of a right shoulder injury.
Tannehill was limited in practice on Friday after putting in full practices on Wednesday and Thursday. What caused the downgrade is unclear, as Tannehill’s name or game status didn’t come up earlier Friday during head coach Adam Gase’s news conference with local reporters, according to team transcripts. Tannehill absorbed a hard hit on the shoulder last week from a Cincinnati Bengals defensive lineman as he tried to throw a pass in the fourth quarter. The ball popped loose and with ruled a fumble, which resulted in the second of two touchdowns for the Bengals defense. The injury first occurred on a play in the second quarter against the Oakland Raiders in Week 3, when Tannehill was seen favoring the shoulder after being driven to the ground by Raiders defensive lineman Maurice Hurst, who received a personal foul penalty as a result.
