The Miami Dolphins are likely to still be without running back Raheem Mostert and wide receiver Malik Washington when they travel to play the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
Both players were listed as doubtful by the team Friday and wide receiver Grant DuBose was ruled out for the Week 3 game.

Mostert, 32, missed the Dolphins’ Week 2 game against the Buffalo Bills due to his unspecified chest injury, but De’Von Achane thrived in his place with 165 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown in the loss.
With DuBose out and Washington, a sixth-round rookie who missed the first two weeks, likely to miss the game too, the Dolphins will likely slide Erik Ezukanma to the active roster Saturday.
“He is healthy enough and we are accounting for him in the equation,” Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said of Ezukanma on Friday.
The Seahawks’ injury report is much more robust.

Seattle is likely to be without running back Kenneth Walker III, but the more significant loss may be George Fant. With Abraham Lucas on the PUP list and Fant out of action, the Seahawks have had to turn to their third-string right tackle, Stone Forsythe, to handle the role.
Forsythe has been credited by PFF with allowing a team-high seven pressures through the first two weeks.
