The Miami Dolphins are reportedly without running back Jaylen Wright for Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions. Wright had been listed as questionable due to a quadriceps injury, but according to an NFL Network report, he is expected to be ruled out. Wright has contributed 41 rushing yards on 22 carries this season, primarily playing behind Pro Bowl running back De'Von Achane and then Ollie Gordon II following Achane's season-ending knee injury.
However, Wright's impact extends to kick returns, where he has averaged 27.6 yards on 22 returns this season. Malik Washington and Kevin Coleman Jr. are other options for the Dolphins in that role. Behind Gordon, who is also questionable with an ailing quadriceps, Kaytron Allen and Carlos Washington Jr. are available. On the Lions' side, star wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is expected to play, having been previously deemed questionable with a rib injury.
The Lions have already ruled out edge rusher DJ Wonnum due to a concussion, center Cade Mays, cornerback DJ Reed, and linebacker Jack Campbell, who was placed on injured reserve after a neck injury. Safety Kerby Joseph, who has been practicing while rehabbing his knee, remains inactive ahead of the game. This story will be updated.
