The Miami Dolphins placed linebackers Bradley Chubb (knee), Cameron Goode (knee) and Jaelan Phillips (Achilles) and offensive lineman Isaiah Wynn (quadriceps) on the Physically Unable to Perform list on Thursday, meaning they won't be ready to take part in the start of training camp next week. Chubb tore the ACL in his right knee in Week 17 in 2023 and will not be ready for the start of the 2024 regular season as a result. The former fifth overall pick of the Denver Broncos in 2018 out of North Carolina State had 11 sacks, a career-high 73 tackles (45 solo) and a league-high six forced fumbles in 16 starts in his first year in Miami in 2023 before his injury. Phillips needed surgery to fix a right Achilles tear in November but is hoping to be ready for the regular-season opener. Miami's pass rush won't be the same until both Chubb and Phillips are back on the field together.
There is concern that Miami Dolphins linebacker Bradley Chubb (knee) tore his ACL late in the Week 17 blowout loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, according to a source. "It doesn't look good." Chubb went down with a non-contact injury in the fourth quarter with the game already well out of hand and had to be carted off the field. He will undergo an MRI exam on Monday, but all signs are pointing toward Chubb missing the rest of the season and most likely the start of the 2024 season this fall. It's a crushing blow to Miami's defense with just one game remaining before the start of the playoffs. With Chubb out, Melvin Ingram and Cameron Goode should see increased snaps at weakside linebacker, beginning in Week 18 against the Buffalo Bills in a game that will decide the winner of the AFC East.
According to ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques, the Dolphins fear linebacker Bradley Chubb (knee) suffered a torn ACL in Sunday's blowout loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The 27-year-old had six tackles before suffering a non-contact injury in the fourth quarter. Of course, he'll likely need further testing. However, it wouldn't be an ideal situation for Miami if Chubb is done for the rest of the year, considering he's one of the Dolphins' top defensive options. It would also be a tough blow for fantasy managers, especially since Chubb has 11 sacks this season. Even worse, the timing of the possible ACL tear could mean the issue extends into training camp and jeopardize his availability for the start of the 2024-25 campaign.
Miami Dolphins linebacker Bradley Chubb (knee) was carted to the locker room with a serious injury near the end of Sunday's loss to the Baltimore Ravens. A defensive staple, Chubb had logged six tackles at the time of his departure. Injuries are always unfortunate, but seeing one occur during garbage time is especially difficult. Miami will brace for the worst as they await additional test results on Chubb over the next couple of days.
The Miami Dolphins restructured the contract of defensive end Bradley Chubb on Thursday to clear up $14.656 million against the 2023 salary cap. Chubb made the Pro Bowl for the second time in his young career in 2022. The 26-year-old pass-rusher started the year with the Denver Broncos but was then traded to the Dolphins. In 16 combined games, he racked up 39 tackles (20 solo), eight sacks, five tackles for loss, 20 QB hits and three forced fumbles. He's reuniting with new defensive coordinator Vic Fangio for his first full season in Miami and has the potential for another very strong season for fantasy managers in IDP formats in 2023.
Miami Dolphins linebacker Bradley Chubb (ankle) was seen stretching, but did not take part in Wednesday's practice. The 26-year-old is coming off of a missed game in Week 17 where the Dolphins lost to the New England Patriots. Now, with Miami's playoff hopes hanging in the balance, the team will hope to welcome back their high-profile mid-season trade acquisition. However, with Chubb missing practice, his situation is not off to a strong start for the Dolphins' crucial matchup against the New York Jets. Keep an eye on his status heading into Week 18.
The Miami Dolphins signed linebacker Bradley Chubb to a five-year, $119 million contract extension on Thursday. Miami recently acquired Chubb from the Broncos just before the NFL trade deadline on Tuesday. Chubb and a 2025 fifth-round pick will be moved to the Broncos for a 2023 first-round pick, a 2024 fourth-round selection, and running back Chase Edmonds. The 26-year-old instantly boosts Miami's defense after recording 26 tackles and 5.5 sacks over eight games in 2022. Chubb should hold steady fantasy value with his new team and remains an elite option in IDP leagues.
The Miami Dolphins acquired outside linebacker Bradley Chubb and a fifth-round pick in 2025 from the Denver Broncos on Tuesday in exchange for running back Chase Edmonds, a first-rounder in 2023 and a fourth-rounder in 2024, according to a source. It's a lot to give up, but Chubb is an ascending young pass-rusher that is now expected to sign a long-term extension with Miami. The 26-year-old will make Miami's pass rush much better alongside Emmanuel Ogbah, Jaelan Phillips and Melvin Ingram. Back in Denver, their defense loses its best pass-rusher. Through eight weeks in 2022, Chubb has recorded 26 tackles (15 solo), four tackles for loss, eight QB hits, 5.5 sacks and two forced fumbles.
The Miami Dolphins and New York Jets are among the teams interested in trading for Denver Broncos pass-rusher Bradley Chubb before Tuesday's trade deadline, according to a well-plugged-in general manager. The Dolphins and Jets are interested enough to consider sending a first-rounder for Chubb. However, for a deal to happen, any team acquiring Chubb would have to have a long-term extension done with him beyond this year. Chubb is due to be a free agent next March and has missed 24 games due to injury in his first four years in the league. The 26-year-old first-rounder has 26 tackles (15 solo), 5.5 sacks, four tackles for loss, eight QB hits and two forced fumbles in eight games so far in 2022. Losing Chubb would be a big hit to Denver's defense/special teams in fantasy.
Denver Broncos edge rusher Bradley Chubb is reportedly on the trade block ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline. The 26-year-old has been productive when healthy, but keeping Chubb on the field has been the biggest challenge. Through his first five seasons, Chubb has only played nine or more games twice. The organization believes in Chubb's upside, so they don't seem too interested in making a deal. The team is fielding calls for Chubb, but aren't expected to make a trade unless they get blown away with an offer.
