Dolphins vs Colts Preview
The Indianapolis Colts (5-3) will come into Sunday with their field general’s status up in the air, as they take on the Miami Dolphins (1-7) at Lucas Oil Stadium.
Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett will be a game-time decision after he was forced from last week’s game with a sprained medial collateral ligament.
If Brissett can’t go, veteran Brian Hoyer will take the reigns under center. The 34-year-old Hoyer was more than serviceable last week in relief of Brissett, as he threw for 168 yards and three touchdowns, almost leading the Colts to a come-from-behind victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri missed a 43-yard go-ahead field goal with 1:14 remaining in the game, and Indianapolis fell on the road in Pittsburgh, 26-24.
The 47-year-old Vinatieri has now missed five field goals out of 17 attempts this season.
With the loss, the Colts dropped out of first place in the AFC South. They now trail the Houston Texans (6-3) by a 1/2 game.
All eight of the Colts’ games this season have been decided by a touchdown or less.
Meanwhile, the Dolphins come into Sunday’s game fresh off recording their first win of the 2019 season last week.
The Dolphins picked up their first W, beating their former coach Adam Gase and the New York Jets, 26-18.
Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick led the team to its highest point total of the season thus far, completing 24-of-36 passes for 288 yards and three TDs.
Rookie standout receiver Preston Williams caught two of those scores but suffered a season-ending knee injury.
The Dolphins, who have the worst rushing game in the league with an average of 3.1 rushing yards per game, will turn to second-year pro Kalen Ballage to run the ball against the Colts.
Sunday will be a special day in Indianapolis, as the Colts will honor their former long-time All-Pro defensive end Dwight Freeney, by inducting him into the team’s Ring of Honor.
Freeney suited up for 11 seasons for the Colts, recording the second-most sacks in franchise history (107.5). The three-time All-Pro was a part of the 2006 Super Bowl-winning team.
