Dolphins most expensive player will miss some time due to injury
The Miami Dolphins are starting to have some injuries pile up in training camp, as one of their best defensive players is now week-to-week.
The Miami Dolphins have informed the media that defensive lineman Zach Sieler will be sidelined for an unspecified period due to an injury. Coach Jeff Hafley disclosed that Sieler, who will earn $11.42 million in the 2026 season, missed Monday's practice and is currently week-to-week. As the team's highest-paid player, Sieler's absence could impact the Dolphins' defensive strategy, particularly at the defensive tackle position.
If the injury proves to be more severe, the Dolphins may lean on Kenneth Grant, Jordan Phillips, and Zeek Biggers. Nonetheless, this setback presents an opportunity for maturing talent like Matthew Butler, Alex Huntley, Fatorma Mulbah, and Keith Cooper Jr. to showcase their skills during the preseason games against the Washington Commanders, scheduled to take place at FedEx Field on Friday.
