DAVIE, Fla. -- The Miami Dolphins placed starting tight end Julius Thomas and guard Jermon Bushrod on injured reserve on Wednesday with a pair of foot injuries.
Thomas was brought to Miami in a trade this offseason with the Jacksonville Jaguars for a seventh-round pick. He was expected to bring a significant red-zone threat to the Dolphins but finished with 41 receptions for 388 yards and three touchdowns.
Bushrod spent the past two years with the Dolphins as a free-agent pickup and started both seasons.
