The Miami Dolphins play host to the Green Bay Packers in a crucial matchup on Sunday from Hard Rock Stadium. These two haven’t met since all the way back in 2018 and with both teams looking quite a bit different now, this is sure to be an interesting matchup.

- The Packers injuries
David Bakhtiari, the left tackle for the Green Bay Packers, did not participate in practice on Friday and was listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins, indicating that he will likely miss a third straight game after having an emergency appendectomy.
The day before the Chicago game, on Friday, Bakhtiari underwent surgery. Bakhtiari hasn’t worked out in three weeks, not counting the bye week and last week’s game against the Rams. It is inconceivable that the Packers would use him without giving him a full week of preparation.

- The Miami Dolphins injuries
Four starters are questionable: left tackle Terron Armstead, outside linebackers Bradley Chubb and Jaelan Phillips, and safety Eric Rowe.
All six practiced as limited participation, including Armstead, who didn’t practice on Wednesday or Thursday due to toe, knee and pectoral injuries. He is expected to play.
Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Packers after practicing in a limited fashion this week, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
That Wilson was able to practice all week, albeit in a limited fashion, suggests the running back has a chance to return to action Sunday after being inactive this past Saturday against the Bills.
