Dolphins' Aqib Talib: Won't return in 2019
The Miami Dolphins won't activate Aqib Talib (ribs) from IR this season, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.The Dolphins will use their second IR activation on rookie linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel (foot), meaning they won't be able to bring back Talib. The 33-year-old was placed on IR by the Rams before being traded to the Dolphins on Oct. 29, and he's eligible to return Week 13 against the Eagles. Talib already stated he's healthy enough to play, but the Dolphins have opted to test out their young talent instead. Talib will be an unrestricted free agent in March, and he figures to have plenty of suitors when the time comes.

Dolphins' Aqib Talib: Indicates he's healthy
Aqib Talib (ribs) said he disagreed with being placed on injured reserve and that he's currently healthy enough to play, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.Talib was placed on IR by the Rams on Oct. 16 with the broken ribs and was traded to the Miami Dolphins last week for salary relief, but apparently the injury isn't that severe. The veteran cornerback could be designated to return from IR for the final four games of the season, but it's unclear if Miami would want to use one of its two return designations on a 33-year-old who will be a free agent next season.

Rams' Aqib Talib: Pops up on injury report
Aqib Talib (ribs) was listed as a non-participant for Wednesday's practice, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.This is the first time this season Talib has popped up on the injury report, suggesting he's dealing with an injury rather than an obligatory vet day off. The 33-year-old has been solid for the Los Angeles Rams defense this campaign, playing at least 60 defensive snaps in every game and has made 14 tackles (seven solo). It will be important to monitor Talib's practice status as the week goes on, but if he can't play Sunday, Troy Hill could see an increase in reps at cornerback.

Aqib Talib recorded two tackles and one interception during Sunday's loss to the Eagles.In his third week back from injured reserve, Talib logged more than 60 defensive snaps for a second game in a row and recorded his first interception as a Ram along the way. His heroics came at a critical juncture, too, considering Los Angeles was then down 17 points in the second half.
