Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins (2-7), which have had a Pop-A-Shot mini basketball hoop in the team's locker room at the practice facility all season, had the arcade-style game missing Thursday. Earlier this season, the Ravens removed a Ping-Pong table and other games from their locker room at 1-5 and have since won their last two, including winning in Miami last week. The Dolphins, though, previously maintained that the Pop-A-Shot was not a distraction.

Fields is averaging 59.3 rushing yards per game, more than some of the high-profile running backs in Jets history: More than Breece Hall's average in 2023 and 2024; more than Le'Veon Bell in 2019 (and Bell was paid $13 million per year); and more than Jets legend Matt Snell in the 1968 Super Bowl season. At his current pace, Fields will finish with 949 yards, almost tripling Geno Smith's team mark for most rushing yards by a quarterback in the Super Bowl era (366 in 2013).

All of a sudden, one of the Dolphins' biggest weaknesses entering the season, cornerback, isn't a big weakness any longer. It's an interesting phenomenon, a curious turn of events. This trio of castoff and no-name cornerbacks - Jack Jones, Rasul Douglas and Cornell Armstrong - has emerged as a reliable crew, something that was on display in Monday's 27-21 win over the New York Jets.
