Dolphins officially place trio of LBs on IR

Dolphins officially make five roster moves, all at LB.

The Miami Dolphins, after their loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night, officially made five roster moves on Tuesday related to injuries at linebacker.

The team announced that linebackers Jerome Baker (wrist), Andrew Van Ginkel (foot) and Cameron Goode (patellar tendon) have been placed on season-ending injured reserve. Baker and Goode are both under contract for next season, but Van Ginkel is set to hit free agency.

To fill the open roster spots, Miami officially signed Justin Houston and Bruce Irvin.

It’s also been reported that they’re signing Malik Reed to their practice squad.

That would leave the team with one open spot on the 53-man roster. This could mean that the Dolphins will sign Melvin Ingram from their own practice squad and sign Reed to their practice squad before Saturday’s game. Or, maybe there’s another corresponding move coming completely.
