What happened: Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright will not play against the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Wright had entered the matchup listed as questionable due to a quad issue before being ruled out ahead of the game.

Why it matters: Miami previously turned to Wright to handle backfield snaps earlier this season. His absence leaves Miami adjusting its backfield rotation against Detroit.

What to watch: The Dolphins host the Lions on Sunday, with kickoff scheduled for 1:00 PM ET.
