Just in time to face Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in Germany, the Miami Dolphins are sporting a fully stocked secondary.
Jevon Holland cleared concussion protocol following the flight to Frankfurt, where the Dolphins (6-2) and Chiefs (6-2) square off Sunday in a game that could help determine home-field advantage in the AFC.
Holland was diagnosed with a head injury in Week 7. He was evaluated on the sideline in the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles but was cleared to return to the game. The next day, he reported new symptoms to the Dolphins’ medical staff and entered NFL-mandated protocol.
Last week, the Dolphins received a boost with the debut of cornerback Jalen Ramsey following a training camp knee injury.
Miami anticipates left tackle Terron Armstead being an option on Sunday for the first time since he landed on injured reserve on Oct. 1. He missed the past four games and has played in only two games this season.
The Dolphins opened his 21-day practice window to return from IR in Germany and Armstead practiced on Wednesday, head coach Mike McDaniel said.
There are still questions along the offensive line.
Center Connor Williams (groin) missed the past three games, but the coaching staff believes he’s close to being ready to play.
Guard Rob Hunt (hamstring) is day-to-day after missing the second half of last Sunday’s win over the New England Patriots.
