Dolphins' Grant DuBose: Placed on IR with shoulder injury
Rotowire
The Dolphins placed DuBose on injured reserve Saturday due to a shoulder injury.
DuBose popped up on the Dolphins' injury report Wednesday with a shoulder injury, and he was unable to practice Thursday and Friday. The severity of the injury isn't clear, but his move to IR will force him to sit out for at least the next four games. The earliest DuBose will be able to return will be Week 8 against the Cardinals on Oct. 27. Both Dee Eskridge and Erik Ezukanma were elevated from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, and one of them could be signed to the active roster for as long as DuBose is sidelined.

Rotowire
DuBose (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Dolphins' Grant DuBose: Not expected to play Sunday
Rotowire
Coach Mike McDaniel said DuBose (shoulder) probably won't play Sunday against the Seahawks, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
DuBose's shoulder injury isn't expected to be a season-ender, but he could miss some time. After playing 18 percent of the offensive snaps in the season opener versus Jacksonville, DuBose was in on 34 percent of the plays last week against Buffalo, but he caught just one of three targets for 13 yards and was the intended receiver on one of Tua Tagovailoa's three interceptions.

Dolphins' Grant DuBose: Pops up on injury report
Rotowire
DuBose (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Dolphins' Grant DuBose: Crucial mistake in TNF loss
Rotowire
DuBose secured one of three targets for 13 yards during Thursday's 31-10 loss to the Bills.
DuBose had a target from Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) bounce off his chest early in the first quarter of Thursday's loss, resulting in a Buffalo interception that set the tone for the night. That mistake will overshadow the second-year pro's first NFL catch and potentially result in his opportunities on offense being reduced going forward. The Dolphins seem likely to have Skylar Thompson under center Week 3 against Seattle and for as long as Tagovailoa remains in the concussion protocol.

Rotowire
DuBose was targeted six times and caught five passes for 66 yards in Saturday's preseason opener against the Browns.
DuBose had been something of an afterthought in Green Bay's deep receiver room, but he made a strong statement in the first preseason contest while leading the Packers in all of targets, receptions and receiving yardage. It will be tough for DuBose to really make a mark if his counterparts stay healthy, but he is in the mix with Malik Heath and Samori Toure for the sixth spot on the depth chart.

DuBose reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
DuBose was a healthy scratch for Week 18 despite Christian Watson (hamstring) being ruled out ahead of the Packers' regular-season finale. It was the only time DuBose was elevated to the active roster this season, and the rookie seventh-round pick will have to wait until 2024 to make his NFL debut unless he's needed during Green Bay's upcoming postseason run.
