The Miami Dolphins are facing challenges as starting left guard Kadyn Proctor and starting cornerback JuJu Brents are in concussion protocol, according to coach Jeff Hafley. Both players experienced concussion symptoms following the team's recent victory over the New York Jets. As a result, Jarrett Kingston is expected to take Proctor's practice reps. The status of Brents remains uncertain, with indications that he might be further along in the recovery process than Proctor. The team's performance in the upcoming game against the New England Patriots will depend on whether these players can return to the field.
The Dolphins' offensive line has been a strong point this season, with Proctor, a first-round rookie, not allowing a sack in six games. Brents, on the other hand, has not allowed a touchdown in 13 games and has been a valuable addition from the Indianapolis Colts. The team's special teams play has also shown improvement, with coach Hafley noting the unit's penalty-free performance and good field position in the win against the Jets.
