3 Dolphins ruled out for Week 17 vs. Buccaneers

[ASFN Admin]

The Miami Dolphins ruled out three players for a Week 17 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The team will once again be without safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, who also missed the Dolphins' loss to the Cincinnati Bengals last week. Miami also ruled out defensive tackle Benito Jones and defensive back Isaiah Johnson. The latter is expected to land on injured reserve soon after tearing his ACL at practice.

The two biggest question marks heading into the weekend are center Aaron Brewer and linebacker Tyrel Dodson. The pair of starters are both questionable and Brewer told reporters that he's likely to be a game time decision Sunday.

Here's what the final injury report looks like ahead of the Dolphins' matchup against the Buccaneers:
