In the second quarter, cornerback Nik Needham was carted off of the field after suffering an apparent leg injury on a play that resulted in a catch by Adam Thielen.

Miami has been without cornerback Byron Jones so far in this 2022 season, as he’s recovering from offseason surgery. Kader Kohou, who would normally step up in Needham’s absence is also inactive. Keion Crossen and Noah Igbinoghene will have to play an even larger role without Needham in the game.

UPDATE: Needham has been ruled out for the remainder of the game.
