Miami faces a short-week test as Aaron Brewer contends with a new hip injury while the rest of the offense eyes early returns from Jaylen Wright and Darren Waller. Waller practiced on the edge; Wright was doubtful but close to suiting up. Melifonwu’s calf complicates safety depth, but Davis/Trader Jr. should split reps. Up front, Savaiinaea must elevate his game on the right side with Borom and Smith anchoring. Special teams mistakes linger from the Patriots game, shaping week-to-week risk and fantasy upside against Buffalo.

Injury updates, depth-chart gymnastics, and coaching comments drive the Dolphins’ Week 4 outlook. Expect tighter protection and more secondary rotation if Melifonwu sits. Washington’s Antonio Gibson and Brenden Schooler serve as cross-team reminders of how special-teams and big plays swing games. execute and scheme adjustments become critical for fantasy relevance in a short week.
