What happened: The Miami Dolphins have ruled out rookie wide receiver Caleb Douglas, edge rusher Robert Beal Jr., tight end Justin Joly, and cornerback Reese Taylor for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Cincinnati will be without safety Kyle Dugger, while receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins are questionable.

Why it matters: The absences further deplete the winless Dolphins as they prepare for the Bengals. Miami faces a Saturday afternoon deadline to decide whether to activate defensive tackle Kenneth Grant and cornerback Storm Duck from reserve lists ahead of a Week 6 bye.

What to watch: Cincinnati will evaluate Higgins during pregame warmups to determine if his adductor and neck injuries will allow him to play.
