The Miami Dolphins kept four players out of practice Wednesday and had another eight limited ahead of a Week 1 opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Terron Armstead and Calais Campbell were among those held out of practice, but it was a veteran rest day for two of the oldest players on the roster. Instead, all eyes are on Jaelan Phillips and Jalen Ramsey, who were the other two out of practice.
Phillips is still working his way back from an Achilles tear that ended his 2023 season. According to the injury report, it’s a hamstring that has kept Ramsey out of action.

A few of the players who were listed as limited were also getting veteran rest. Among the eight who had limited reps Wednesday, center Aaron Brewer may be the biggest concern as he’s working to get on the same page with Tua Tagovailoa after missing much of camp with his hand injury.
On the other sideline, the Jaguars expect to have a nearly completely clean bill of health. The sole player listed on the team’s Wednesday injury report was defensive back and special teamer Daniel Thomas.
