Miami Dolphins’ thinning defense line took its latest hit against the Chicago Bears

The hits keep on coming to this Miami Dolphins defensive line.

The latest victim: Defensive end Jonathan Woodard, who is being evaluated for a concussion after taking a hit in the second quarter against the Chicago Bears on Sunday and will not return. The injury occurred shortly after Woodard recorded the first sack of his young NFL career.

The Dolphins promoted Woodard to the active roster on Sept. 26 after adding him to the practice squad on Sept. 2 following the preseason. Woodard, a former seventh-round pick out of Central Arkansas in the 2016 NFL draft by the Jacksonville Jaguars, has played in just three career games after missing his entire rookie season with an Achilles injury.
