Two Miami Dolphins starters have entered the NFL's concussion protocol ahead of the team's upcoming game against the New England Patriots, raising concerns about the offensive line depth.
The Dolphins, who played the Cincinnati Bengals on October 11, 2026, at Hard Rock Stadium, saw tackle Kadyn Proctor exit the field at halftime during that contest. While Proctor's status is unclear, the team now faces multiple starters in the league's concussion evaluation process.
Miami's medical staff will monitor the players through the protocol's mandatory steps before clearing them for potential participation against New England. The Patriots matchup represents a critical AFC East divisional game for both franchises.
