Key Points:
- The Miami Dolphins placed quarterback Malik Willis on injured reserve due to a core muscle injury stemming from a groin issue, though it is not season-ending.
- Willis is expected to miss at least four games, with Kyle McCord, a 2025 sixth-round pick who has not played in a regular-season game, likely to start in his place.
- Willis has completed 58.2% of his passes for 1,396 yards, six touchdowns, and six interceptions this season.
- The Dolphins also placed defensive lineman Zach Sieler on injured reserve and waived cornerback Reese Taylor.
