Dolphins add offensive line depth from the practice squad ahead of game against Ravens

The Dolphins elevated offensive tackle Larnel Coleman from the practice squad, adding depth along their offensive line ahead of Sunday’s road matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.

Coleman, a seventh-round pick of the Dolphins in 2021, was released in August as part of roster cuts before signing to the team’s practice squad. He got extended reps in training camp when tackle Greg Little was sidelined by an injury.

The team on Friday placed right tackle Austin Jackson on injured reserve, sidelining him for at least the next four games. Little is expected to start for Jackson. The move also left the Dolphins with seven offensive linemen on the 53-man roster; NFL teams must dress eight offensive linemen to have 48 players active on game day.

Left tackle Terron Armstead is questionable to play with a toe injury. If he cannot play, the Dolphins could move Liam Eichenberg from left guard to left tackle or have Coleman take Armstead’s spot in the lineup.

The team also elevated wide receiver River Cracraft for the second consecutive game. Cracraft played 10 offensive snaps and four special teams snaps in the Dolphins’ season-opening win over the New England Patriots. NFL rules allow teams to elevate a practice-squad player for game day a maximum of three times.

Meanwhile, the Dolphins ruled out tight end Hunter Long for Week 2 after he surfaced on the injury report Friday with an ankle injury. Long, who played 10 offensive snaps against the Patriots, did not travel with the team to Baltimore and was originally listed as questionable.
