Dolphins Final Week 5 Injury Report: Jaylen Wright Questionable

The Miami Dolphins are set to face off against the Cincinnati Bengals in what could be the team's first win of the season. The Dolphins have a strong challenge ahead, especially with the potential loss of running back Jaylen Wright.

Wright is nursing a foot injury that left him questionable in the final two practices of the week.

Here is the full final injury report:

Wright holds a questionable status, which could complicate things if he is not able to take the field. The Dolphins are likely to use Ollie Gordon II as lead back, regardless if Wright can play, but losing a backup back is tough.

Wright could very well play, and the team already made a move to bring in some more depth. Earlier Saturday, Carlos Washington Jr. was elevated from the practice squad. 

There are also several players who are out, including edge Robert Beal Jr. (hamstring), wide receiver Caleb Douglas (ankle), tight end Justin Joly (concussion), and cornerback Reese Taylor (quad). 

Long snapper Tucker Addington (shoulder), wide receiver Chris Bell (knee), cornerback JuJu Brents (heel), defensive lineman Kenneth Grant (toe), tackle Austin Jackson (knee), and safety Dante Trader Jr. (shin) are all good to play and have no game status.

In addition to adding Washington, the Dolphins also activated Grant from injured reserve and waived quarterback Brady Cook. The defensive lineman is expected to play against the Bengals.

One of the more surprising players who is now out is cornerback Storm Duck. Despite being a full participant throughout the week, he will not return in Week 5. This means he will get an additional week to ramp up before coming back after the Week 6 bye.

With Beal also out, Miami elevated edge Rodney McGraw to the active roster for the game. 

The Dolphins are still searching for their first win of the season, and they will get no benefit from the Bengals being without wide receivers Tee Higgins and Ja'Marr Chase. Both are questionable and are likely to play.

A good way for this Miami team to pull off a win is to get after the quarterback, and stopping Joe Burrow from getting it to his star receivers will be the top priority. 

Miami pulled off four sacks on the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4, but it did not materialize into a win. If they can mimic the same effort against Burrow, things may change in their favor.
