news broke (thanks Houtz for posting) that the Miami Dolphins

Earlier today Miami Dolphins Hats ,were listing quarterback Ryan Tannehill on the team’s final injury report of the week, marking him as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears. Tannehill was limited in his work on Friday, dealing with an issue in his throwing shoulder that first occurred during the team’s Week 3 game against the Oakland Raiders and continues to bother him. He was not slowed by it last week or early this week, but there appears to be something a little more bothersome about it on Friday, causing Tannehill to at least modify something about Friday’s practice.He was not the only member of the Dolphins, who have been bitten hard by the injury bug as of late, to be listed on the report. In fact, 20 percent of the Dolphins’ rost er is currently on the injury report for Sunday. Defensive end Cameron Wake, who missed last week’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals, his first missed game since 2015, is again listed as doubtful after not practicing for the second-straight week as he recovers from a knee injury. The team then listed nine other players as questionable, joining Tannehill in the category. Linebacker Chase Allen continues to recover from a foot injury, defensive end Andre Branch is working his way back from a knee issue, tight end A.J. Derby has a foot problem, wide receiver Jakeem Grant has an injured shoulder, defensive end Charles Harris popped up on the injury report on Friday with a calf issue, cornerback Bobby McCain was limited in practice on Friday after not working out earlier in the week as he returns from a knee injury, safety T.J. McDonald continues to be bothered by a foot problem, wide receiver DeVante Parker is looking to return after missing two games with a quardiceps issue Miami Dolphins Hoodie , and tackle Laremy Tunsil worked through the concussion protocol. All of them could be available for Sunday, with Tannehill and Tunsil keys to the offense being able to find any success this week.Miami is trying to stop a two-game losing skid.The Bears, meanwhile, only listed defensive back Marcus Cooper on the final injury report, ruling him out for the game. Defensive back Prince Amukamara, offensive lineman Eric Kush, and wide receiver Anthony Miller all had been on the report earlier in the week, but were removed and are expected to play. The Dolphins removed wide receiver Danny Amendola, running back Frank Gore, and defensive end Robert Quinn from the final injury determination after they were all given veteran rest days during the practice week. Also removed from the report were safety Reshad Jones, who has a shoulder injury but was a full participant in practice all week; tight end Durham Smyther, who was limited on Thursday with an ankle problem but fully practiced on Friday; and, wide receiver Albert Wilson, who was a full participant in practice all week despite an abdominal injury.Miami hosts Chicago in a 1pm ET game on Sunday.Former Dolphins, Jaguars tight end Julius Thomas retires from the NFL After being released by the Miami Dolphins back in March, Julius Thomas is officially hanging up his cleats.Thomas, 30, is closing out his seven-year NFL career, one that started as a fourth-round draft pick of the Denver Broncos back in 2011. While in Denver Customized Miami Dolphins Jerseys , Thomas emerged as one of the league’s most dangerous tight ends, especially in the red zone. During the 2013 and 2014 seasons, he accumulated a whopping 24 touchdowns, over 1,200 receiving yards, and 108 receptions while catching passes from Peyton Manning under then-offensive coordinator Adam Gase.Thomas turned that production into a five-year, $46 million contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars, where injuries and poor quarterback play from Blake Bortles brought his numbers down to a sputtering low. After the 2016 season, the Jaguars top brass decided they’d overpaid for Thomas long enough and traded him to the Dolphins for a seventh-round draft pick.In Miami, the former Pro Bowler signed a new two-year contract. Both Thomas and Dolphins fans were hoping that being reunited with now-head coach Adam Gase would be enough to rekindle that spark that led Thomas to being a star in Denver. Unfortunately a combination of nagging injuries and horrendous quarterbacking from Jay Cutler proved to be insufficient fuel, and Thomas failed to become a useful weapon in Miami’s offense. The veteran looked slow on the field and was simply outmatched by more athletic defenders. Only on the hook for $1 million in guarantees, the team cut him loose this offseason.Thomas released a statement through The Players’ Tribune discussing his reasons for walking away from the game he’s played over the past seven years. “The ability to assist with the latest research being done on brain trauma and the pursuit to better understand CTE. To study it not just from the perspective of a psychologist or a clinician, but also as a person who has played for several years at the highest level, is something that excites me,” he wrote. “It fills me with a sense of purpose. It’s a way to help while growing intellectually that I had been searching for. I know I have so much to learn, but that’s what I’m most looking forward to.”Thomas is hoping that by making an impact, he can cement his legacy beyond football. “I believe helping others is what I’m supposed to be doing at this point in my life. Hopefully I can help by encouraging more of my peers to connect with who they are outside of the game. If ultimately that’s what I’m remembered for, I’d be very thankful.”
