Just days after securing a comeback victory against the Arizona Cardinals without five assistant coaches, the Dolphins will likely be without two starting defenders for their Week 10 matchup due to COVID-19 protocols.
Dolphins veteran outside linebacker Kyle Van Noy, second-year defensive tackle Christian Wilkins and practice squad receiver Matt Cole were placed on the NFL’s reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
All three players will miss Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers, when the Dolphins hope to extend their four-game winning streak and improve their second-place standing in the AFC East and seventh-place standing in the AFC playoff race.
