The Miami Dolphins got a dose of bad news today when they placed Brent Grimes on today’s inactive list. The news is not good for a team who has little depth at the corner position let alone starters. Grimes’ absence will not be good for a struggling defense facing a potent passing attack in Philadelphia.
The Dolphins did not release the reason that Grimes will not play but Ian Rapoport reports that Grimes is ill.
#Dolphins CB Brent Grimes is inactive due to an illness, I’m told. Bad timing.

The Dolphins will have to rely on Jamar Taylor, Brice McCain, and rookie Bobby McCain to take up the slack.
