Miami Dolphins vs. New England Patriots Friday Injury Report

The Miami Dolphins are hosting the New England Patriots tomorrow, and it is a chance for the Patriots to clinch the AFC East with a 9-3 record. They should be able to win this game, but they have been hit hard by injuries. The Patriots injury report is always bloated (especially with regards to the questionable tag), but they have already ruled out three star players for this clash. Everybody knew Rob Gronkowski would be out for this game, but the fact that DE Chandler Jones has also been ruled out is a sizeable blow for the Patriots defense.
