Roster Moves | We have activated safety Kyle Louis off the injured reserve list. We have also elevated kicker Zane Gon Via @MiamiDolphins on X

What happened: Miami restored Kyle Louis to the 53-man roster Saturday after opening his 21-day practice window on Wednesday for a knee injury. The club also brought up kicker Zane Gonzalez and edge defender Max Lewellyn to the active roster ahead of the matchup against New York.

Why it matters: The fourth-round rookie safety had been sidelined since the Dolphins placed him on injured reserve on Sept. 16. Gonzalez steps into kicking duties four days after signing on Oct. 20, returning to the club following an August injured reserve stint and release.

By the numbers: Miami sits 15th in the conference standings at 0-5 on a five-game losing streak following a 31-24 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Oct. 11.

What to watch: The Dolphins take the field in 24 hours seeking their first victory of the 2026 regular season.
