The Miami Dolphins needed to make two moves ahead of their Week 1 opener against the Colts. On Saturday, they announced both of those expected transactions.
With Jason Sanders on injured reserve, the Dolphins fanbase knew kicker Riley Patterson was going to be elevated from the practice squad. He will active for the first three weeks at least. Then it gets a bit more interesting. Miami also elevated running back Jeff Wilson to the roster.
Both players joining the active roster this week is not surprising, given the injuries to Sanders and Jaylen Wright, but it doesn't come without some questions regarding other positions.
