With a 22-point lead over the Denver Broncos in the third quarter, the Miami Dolphins drove down the field quickly on their first possession of the second half from their own 10-yard line to score their sixth touchdown of the day.
Unfortunately, on the drive, the Dolphins lost center Connor Williams to an injury on a 40-yard gain by running back De’Von Achane. He went back to the locker room under his own power.
The team later announced that he is dealing with a groin injury and is questionable to return.

Without Williams, the Dolphins don’t have a true center, but Liam Eichenberg has taken over in the middle of the line. Miami prepared for this moment during training camp, getting Eichenberg reps there for the first time in his NFL career.
