Dolphins catch big MNF break as shocking Steelers injury changes everything

The Miami Dolphins face an uphill battle in Week 15, as they must contend with the AFC North-leading Pittsburgh Steelers on the road in sub-freezing temperatures. Add in the Steelers' remarkable record at home on Monday Night Football, and this game was shaping up to be their toughest test in months.

In a twist of fate, however, Pittsburgh will now have to defend its home turf without its franchise player. Star edge rusher T.J. Watt has been ruled out for MNF with a lung injury, one he suffered during a dry needling treatment at the Steelers' facility.
