Branden Albert admitted this week he was “very, very frustrated” with his injuries. Now imagine flying all the way to London to not play.
According to Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald, the Dolphins left tackle won’t play this week against the Jets, the second straight game he’s missed.
That puts Jason Fox back in the starting lineup for another week, a tough task against a Jets defensive line which is a load to block in the best of circumstances.
After Albert rehabbed last year’s knee injury, he’s been dealing with a hamstring problem that had him limited in practice the last two weeks.
With their bye week coming up after the game against the Jets, it makes sense for the Dolphins to give him some time to recover.
