The Miami Dolphins will be without two key names on offense ahead of tonight's huge game against divisional rivals the Buffalo Bills.
If the Dolphins win, they will be crowned the AFC East champions and will keep the number two seed, but a loss to the Bills will see them drop down to the sixth seed in the AFC. This will make the Dolphins' road to the Super Bowl a harder one with a game against the Kansas City Chiefs awaiting in the wildcard round if they fail to beat the Bills.
Now it has been reported by NFL insiders Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero that running back Raheem Mostert and wide receiver Jaylen Waddle will miss the game against the Bills.
Both Mostert and Waddle missed two practice sessions this week in the run up to the final round of regular season games, but their fitness should not be of concern to Dolphins fans with the two players set to be fit for the playoffs.
While the Dolphins already have a playoff spot secured, for the Bills it's a different story. A win is the only way Sean McDermott's team can reach the postseason, but after a dominant 48-20 win over the Dolpins earlier in the season, the team will be confident that they can produce something similar in Florida this evening.
