The Dolphins will place starting right guard Danny Isidora on injured reserve, according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald. Isadora needs surgery on his injured foot, so it’s unlikely that he’ll return anytime soon.
Technically, Isadora is eligible to return as soon as Week 11, per league rules, but his recovery will probably take upwards of two months. On top of that, the Dolphins are unlikely to be in the playoff mix this year, so it would make little sense for the Fins to rush the lineman back out on the field.
The Dolphins acquired Isadora from the Vikings just before this year’s final cutdown. He started in the Fins’ first three games, but that spot will now belong to Evan Boehm, who was also a last-minute trade pickup before the start of the year.
The 0-3 Dolphins will attempt to get into the win column on Sunday when they face the Chargers.
