The Miami Dolphins will be without two starters and possibly more when they play the Tennessee Titans on Monday night.
On Saturday, the team ruled out left tackle Terron Armstead and cornerback Kendall Fuller due to concussions suffered in Week 3. The Dolphins also listed linebacker David Long Jr. as doubtful, and three players — running back Raheem Mostert, wide receiver Malik Washington, and quarterback Skylar Thompson — as questionable.

If Long is out of action, the Dolphins will likely turn to Anthony Walker Jr. to take over at linebacker.
“If he’s out there it’s because he did something remarkable during the course of the week,” Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said of Long on Saturday. “If he’s not, it’s because there is no way it could be possible. He absolutely wants to play in this game.”
The Dolphins have been without Mostert in each of the last two weeks due to a chest injury.
“I did some stuff yesterday and it felt good, but it’s all about the game speed and the game reps,” Mostert told reporters Friday. “That’s what really matters most.”
For the Titans, the significant injury is two-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons, who is doubtful with an elbow issue.
