  "summary": "The Miami Dolphins have made strategic moves ahead of their Week 9 matchup against the Detroit Lions, elevating two players from their practice squad to the active roster. Kicker Zane Gonzalez, 31, and running back Carlos Washington Jr., 27, were added to the team's 55-player active roster on Saturday. Gonzalez, who rejoined the Dolphins' practice squad last month after the offseason, has made two field goals and all five extra points in his three attempts. This is Gonzalez's third and final elevation, and the team must sign him to the 53-man roster before Week 10 if they wish to keep him on the team. Washington, who initially failed to make the Dolphins' roster out of camp, has been elevated twice previously, including a brief stint on the 53-man roster last month. This is Washington's second elevation, and the team must sign him to the 53-man roster to keep him on the active roster for the game against the Lions.",
