Dolphins Place QB Malik Willis on IR with Core Muscle Injury; Set to Start Kyle McCord

  • On Tuesday, the Miami Dolphins placed starting quarterback Malik Willis on injured reserve due to a core muscle injury, sidelining him for at least the next four games.
  • Willis had been managing a groin injury for weeks, but an MRI revealed it had worsened into a core muscle injury after he appeared visibly hampered during Sunday's 19-9 loss to the Detroit Lions.
  • Backup Kyle McCord will make his first career start this Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts, after the Dolphins acquired him from the Green Bay Packers in August.
  • Defensive tackle Zach Sieler was also placed on injured reserve after suffering a ruptured biceps against the Detroit Lions, while the team waived cornerback Reese Taylor.
  • Facing a 1-7 record in the AFC East, the Dolphins must navigate upcoming games against the Buffalo Bills, New York Jets, and Denver Broncos before Willis potentially returns December 13 against the Chicago Bears.
