The Miami Dolphins are preparing for Week 4’s matchup against the red hot Seattle Seahawks offense without their highest paid defender. Free agent acquisition cornerback Byron Jones did not participate in Wednesday’s practice as he continues to rehab a groin injury suffered in Week 2. It appears he’s trending towards missing his second straight game. Rookie defensive back Noah Igbinoghene, who performed admirably in last week’s win over the Jacksonville Jaguars after struggling through the first two weeks of the season, will likely start in Jones’ stead.
Tua Tagovailoa, the fifth overall pick in April’s NFL Draft, was absent with a non-COVID-19 related illness.
