There is no love lost between the Miami Dolphins and the New England Patriots. Both teams will be looking to get off to a winning start but neither team will have it easy with their injuries.

The Miami Dolphins are away from home, which will be a challenge as Foxborough welcomes back fans this season. But the New England Patriots have severe deficiencies due to injuries and will hope the partisan support can give them a boost. We look at the players who are out and those who will be primarily entrusted to beat their division rivals.

Miami Dolphins vs New England Patriots : Injury report

Miami Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins have minor injury concerns. Tackle Liam Eichenberg will not make it because of a thigh injury. Wide receiver Preston Williams is questionable with a foot injury.

New England Patriots

The New England Patriots enter the regular season with Mac Jones as their starting quarterback. But he was immediately put under pressure due to a depleted wide receiver corps.

Wide receiver N'Keal Harry is already out due to a shoulder injury. Malcolm Perry and Nelson Agholor are also out with foot and ankle injuries respectively, which leaves the receiving unit threadbare. Staying with the offense, tackle Yodny Cajuste is expected to be out with a hamstring injury.

On defense, safety Jalen Mills is questionable with an ankle injury. Linebacker Ronnie Perkins may struggle to make the game due to a sore shoulder.
