Ahead of Monday Night Football, both the Miami Dolphins and the Pittsburgh Steelers updated their injury reports, clarifying availability but leaving the final inactives to be announced pregame.
The Dolphins listed special teamer Elijah Campbell as doubtful (ankle/knee) and offensive lineman Andrew Meyer as questionable while still on injured reserve. They later added backup tackle Larry Borom to the questionable list due to illness.
The Steelers ruled out T.J. Watt (lung) and added Jaylen Warren as questionable due to illness, but the running back is expected to play.
Several Dolphins who were limited on Friday, including De’Von Achane, Rasul Douglas, and Chop Robinson, were deemed good to go, per team reporting. With the Dolphins practicing Saturday night after travel and both clubs filing late updates Monday, the official inactives will be finalized 90 minutes before kickoff.

The matchup pivots on availability and trench play. The Dolphins’ late illness for Larry Borom shouldn’t alter the starting right tackle slot with Austin Jackson back, but depth is thinner if Borom cannot dress. De’Von Achane’s “good to go” status boosts Miami’s explosive run and screen game.
For Pittsburgh, T.J. Watt’s confirmed absence reshapes the pass rush and forces scheme adjustments to manufacture pressure from other fronts; Jaylen Warren’s illness designation is the key offensive variable, as his dual-threat output has been a stabilizer.
With three Steelers ruled out and Miami’s doubtful/questionable designations outstanding, final inactives will clarify roles in sub-packages and special teams. Expect Miami to lean into speed and perimeter touches, while Pittsburgh’s defense will try to compress space without Watt and test protection rules. Official inactives will lock in personnel 90 minutes before kickoff.
