Dolphins Won't Have Three Leading Receivers Vs. Patriots
BOSTON (CBS) -- The bulk of the Dolphins' receiving production will not be active for Sunday's game against the Patriots. Wide receivers DeVante Parker and Jakeem Grant as well as tight end Mike Gesicki are all inactive for Sunday's game in Miami.
All three players were listed as questionable on Friday's injury report. Gesicki has a shoulder injury, while Grant and Parker are both dealing with hamstring issues. Some reports indicated that Parker would play, but his pregame workout must have prevented that from happening.
Parker leads the Dolphins iwth 677 yards, followed by Gesicki (602 yards) and Grant (330 yards). That trio acconts for 11 of the Dolphins' 21 receiving touchdowns on the season.
On the other side, the Patriots will be without their leading rusher, as Damien Harris is out with an ankle injury.
The complete list of inactive players is below.
