The Dolphins Will Be Without A Major Player Against The Bills

The Bills take on the Miami Dolphins early this year and after a move they made today, they will be without one of their major players.

Because they're in the same division, the Buffalo Bills play the Miami Dolphins twice every year. Normally it's a hot game in the Miami sun early in the season, then a cold snowy game in Buffalo later. The Bills lucked out this year a little bit because when the schedule came out, the Bills were set up against the Dolphins early in the season, but they made it a night game. That means that they might have to deal with the heat, but they won't have to bake in the sun like they have the past couple of years.

They also found out today that they won't have to play against one of Miami's most dangerous defensive players.

The news was released early this morning that defensive end Bradley Chubb will start the year on the Player Unable to Perform (PUP) list. That means that he will be unavailable for at least the first four games of the season. The Bills play Miami on Week 2 of the NFL Season this year.

Chubb was unfortunately hurt at the end of a game where the Dolphins were getting blown out against the Baltimore Ravens. They had no chance of winning it, and head coach Mike McDaniel took a lot of heat for leaving some of his best players in the game when it was out of hand. Many would have hoped that he would save those players for the playoffs. Instead, Chubb tore his ACL. That injury will still keep him on the sidelines to start this season.
