Jeff Wilson Jr. Puts In Another Limited Practice

Jeff Wilson Jr. Puts In Another Limited Practice

one year ago

Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (finger, ribs) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. The Dolphins opened up Wilson's 21-day window to activate him from Injured Reserve this week, and the coaching staff believes he's ready to play. However, it still remains to be seen if he'll be active for his season debut this weekend in a matchup against the winless Carolina Panthers. The Dolphins could use the help in the backfield after placing impressive rookie De'Von Achane (knee) on Injured Reserve this week. If Wilson doesn't return in Week 6, Salvon Ahmed will back up lead back Raheem Mostert. The 27-year-old Wilson should be picked up immediately if he's available on your league's waiver wire, but it would be a bit much to expect him to have a big role if he's active for the first time this year on Sunday.
