The Miami Dolphins will refrain from unleashing their newest offensive weapon against the Carolina Panthers. Just over a week after trading for wide receiver Chase Claypool, Miami has listed him as inactive for the team’s Week 6 game, giving him at least another week to grow comfortable with the Dolphins’ offensive system.
Joining Claypool on the inactive players list for Miami are cornerback Kelvin Joseph, center Connor Williams, tight end Tyler Kroft, and defensive tackle Brandon Pili. Quarterback Skylar Thompson is inactive, but designated as the team’s emergency quarterback, allowing him to enter the game should both starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and backup Mike White be injured during the game.
