Kendall Fuller, Terron Armstead, Storm Duck, Skylar Thompson, and David Long Jr. all suffered injuries against the Seahawks.
The Miami Dolphins dropped below .500 for the first time under Mike McDaniel with a 24-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. The Seahawks controlled the game from start to finish, holding Miami’s offense to just three points despite two drives starting inside Seattle’s 10-yard line.
Five Dolphins players were injured during Sunday’s 21-point loss, as reported in the press box. Cornerback Kendall Fuller was placed in concussion protocol in the second quarter before being downgraded to out. Fuller was credited with a pass breakup and allowed just one reception for 22 yards before exiting the game.
Rookie cornerback Storm Duck replaced Fuller but left after 25 snaps with a shoulder injury, leading to Siran Neal stepping in. Duck was targeted twice, allowing one reception for two yards. Linebacker David Long Jr. played 75 percent of Miami’s defensive snaps before leaving in the fourth quarter with a hamstring injury.
Tackle Terron Armstead, already battling knee and shoulder issues, exited the game with an eye injury and did not return. Kendall Lamm stepped in and stabilized the offensive line, allowing no quarterback pressures on 41 snaps, according to PFF.
Third-year quarterback Skylar Thompson was ruled out after suffering a chest injury in the third quarter. Before exiting, Thompson completed 13 of 19 passes for 107 yards but was sacked five times by the Seattle defense.
The Dolphins host the Tennessee Titans on Monday Night Football in Week 4, with the team’s first injury report, including updates on these five players, expected on Thursday.
