As the Miami Dolphins prepare for the most important game of the season, with the playoffs on the line, next Sunday against the Buffalo Bills, they won’t have wide receiver/returner Jakeem Grant available for the tilt.
According to NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport, Grant will miss Sunday’s critical game against the AFC East Division leaders due to a high-ankle sprain that he suffered during Saturday’s shocking victory over the Las Vegas Raiders that brought the Dolphins record to 10-5 on the season.
Grant has 36 catches for 373 yards and one touchdown this season for Miami, a season that has saw Grant relied on as a receiver more than ever, despite lackluster results.
Grant currently is currently the league leading punt returner on the season, so his loss will be a big blow to the Dolphins special teams.
