Miami plans to restructure Armstead's contract, putting him in line to return for his 12th NFL season, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports. Armstead was able to play in only 10 games during the 2023 season, but he will again be the Dolphins' starting left tackle going into the new year. When healthy, he protects the quarterback about as well as anyone in football.
Armstead sustained the injury in the third quarter of Friday's win against the Jets and did not return. His practice participation next week will determine whether or not he plays Week 13 against the Commanders. If Armstead is unable to play, Kendall Lamm and Kion Smith are candidates for the starting left tackle spot.
Wolfe notes that the fact that Armstead is traveling with the team indicates that his 21-day practice window could open sometime this week. He's already missed the minimum four games while on IR and is eligible to be activated ahead of Sunday's game. The standout left tackle missed the Dolphins' first two games of the season with leg and back injuries before sustaining the knee injury in Miami's Week 4 loss to the Bills.
