The Dolphins badly want cornerback Byron Maxwell to play Sunday against the Steelers.
But Maxwell missed yet another practice Thursday and Adam Gase said “we're running out of time if we have any shot for him to play. It's been a while since he's practiced. We're going to have to evaluate that.”
Maxwell has not appeared in a game since injuring his ankle against the Jets on Dec. 11. While he didn’t shadow Antonio Brown in the Dolphins’ Week 6 win over Pittsburgh, he played a big part in limiting the Steelers’ star receiver to just four catches and 39 yards.
