Dolphins safety Walt Aikens blocked a punt, then picked up the loose ball and ran it for a touchdown early in the third quarter Saturday night.
That gave the Dolphins a 20-10 lead. On the first play following Aikens’ touchdown, Jets quarterback Bryce Petty was intercepted on a deep ball by Tony Lippett. The Dolphins then went right down the field and went up 27-10 after a 1-yard touchdown pass to Dion Sims, his second touchdown of the night.
Dolphins quarterback Matt Moore has thrown three touchdown passes.
The 8-5 Dolphins need a win to keep their playoff hopes alive, and they’ve taken control. The Dolphins led at halftime, 13-10.
