Head coach\u00a0Mike McDaniel&#8217;s team is heading into a must-win matchup\u00a0against the Houston Texans this Sunday. With quarterback\u00a0Tua Tagovailoa\u00a0healthy, the Dolphins have started to gain a rhythm as the season has gone on. The franchise now sits at 6-7 and is two games out of the conference&#8217;s fifth, sixth, and seventh seeds.\u00a0The\u00a010-3 Buffalo Bills have already\u00a0clinched\u00a0the AFC East.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aspect-video w-full\">\n<div class=\"not-prose flex aspect-video w-full items-center justify-center\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>With four games left, the Dolphins must be at peak form and healthy for the next month. However, it looks like Terron Armstead will miss the team&#8217;s most challenging game remaining on the schedule. According to\u00a0<span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3\">Miami Dolphins reporter for ESPN NFL Nation Marcel Louis-Jacques, Mike McDaniel\u00a0is \u201cpessimis<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Marcel_LJ\/status\/1867608623632843192\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tic\u201d<\/a>\u00a0about Terron Armstead playing against the Texans.

After three Pro Bowls and one All-Pro selection, the Arkansas-Pine Bluff graduate signed a five-year deal with the Miami Dolphins in 2022. Since then, Armstead has made two more Pro Bowls playing in South Beach. However, the left tackle has also struggled with\u00a0lingering injuries throughout his Dolphins&#8217; career.<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_2_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-sticky-container adthrive-content adthrive-content-2 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,120193976\/AdThrive_Content_2\/5e90daf19f500876e949a3d9_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>2024 has been no different, as Armstead has dealt with a right knee injury. Because of this issue, the Dolphins will likely not have their left tackle on Sunday. Rookie Patrick Paul will start against a Texans team with one of the best rushes in the NFL. Paul was a second-round pick out of Houston in the 2024 NFL Draft. He was selected First-Team All-Conference for three straight years in college.<\/p>\n<div class=\"not-prose flex w-full flex-col gap-4 divide-y divide-solid divide-[#58585820] bg-[#FAFAFA] px-4 pt-5\">\n<div class=\"flex items-center justify-between\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"grid w-full grid-cols-1 divide-y divide-solid divide-[#58585820] md:grid-cols-2\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-row justify-between gap-2.5 py-4 md:pl-2.5\">\n<div class=\"flex gap-2.5\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-col font-secondary\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_4_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-sticky-container adthrive-content adthrive-content-4\"><\/div>\n<p>The Houston Texans are currently 8-5 and sitting first in the AFC South by two games. On defense, the Texans have recorded 42 sacks, which is second in the league. The pass rush is led by defensive ends Danielle Hunter and Will Anderson Jr. The two are fourth and seventh in the NFL in sacks. Miami has given up an average of 2.5 sacks a game this season, coming in at 16th overall. It will be crucial for the offensive line to hold the fort down in Armstead&#8217;s absence.<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_3_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-sticky-container adthrive-content adthrive-content-3 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,120193976\/AdThrive_Content_3\/5e90daf19f500876e949a3d9_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Overall, it&#8217;s been a very trying year for this organization in Mike McDaniel&#8217;s third season.

That starts with Houston on Sunday, followed by games against the San Francisco 49ers, Cleveland Browns, and New York Jets. While all those games are winnable, the Dolphins must keep Tua Tagovailoa upright and healthy during this stretch. Not having Terron Armstead is an obstacle this team must overcome on Sunday to keep its season alive.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dolphins received an urgent update on star offensive tackle Terron Armstead The\u00a0Miami Dolphins\u00a0just received a concerning update on the status of offensive tackle\u00a0Terron Armstead.
