Head coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that the Dolphins are not planning for Howard (foot) to suit up for Saturday's wild-card game at Kansas City, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Howard sat out of Miami's season finale due to a foot injury he sustained in Week 17 at Baltimore, and now it looks like he'll have to miss the wild-card round as well. If that indeed comes to pass, Eli Apple would probably be in line for increased snaps Saturday.
