    There were two significant injury news items for the Dolphins on Thursday, the most notable involving tight end MarQueis Gray being placed on injured reserve in the morning because of an Achilles injury he sustained in practice.

    Wide receiver Jakeem Grant was listed as a full participant for a second consecutive day, but the news involving him was that he was removed from the concussion protocol.

    Running back Frank Gore, who was a full participant Wednesday despite being listed with an Achilles injury, did not practice Thursday. But his injury this time was listed as Achilles/Not Injury Related, an indication he simply was given a veteran’s day off.

    Wide receiver DeVante Parker (finger) did not practice for a second consecutive day; guard Ted Larsen (knee) again was limited; and guard Josh Sitton (shoulder) again was listed as a full participant.

    Tennessee had two changes on its injury report, both involving outside linebackers. Rookie second-round pick Harold Landry (ankle) did not practice after being limited Wednesday, and veteran Derrick Morgan (knee) had full participation after being limited Wednesday.

    Safety Kendrick Lewis (foot) did not participate for a second consecutive day; tackle Jack Conklin (knee) and rookie first-round pick Rashaan Evans (hamstring) again were limited.

    Update:

    The following Tennesse players have been ruled out.

    RT Jack Conklin (knee) - out - Starter
    OLB Harold Landry (ankle) - out
    LB Rashaan Evans (hamstring) - out
    S Kendrick Lewis (foot) - out

    Dennis Kelly is going to fill in for Conklin. Tennesse fans aren't excited about that.

    LB - Derrick Morgan began the week limited in practice, but on Thursday practice was unrestricted. The 29-year-old underwent surgery for a torn meniscus this offseason, and sat out multiple weeks of the preseason due to an undisclosed knee injury. With Evens out they could get thin at LB if he gets hurt. If he has to cover a speedy slot guy this may be a mismatch.

    With the exception of wide receiver DeVante Parker, the Dolphins should have their entire 53-man roster available for their season opener against the Tennessee Titans. Quarterback Brock Osweiler (knee) was added to the injury report Friday, but he was listed as a full participant and did not have a game status designation, meaning he will be available.

    The same goes for the other players on the Dolphins injury report: RB Frank Gore(Achilles/Not Injury Related), WR Jakeem Grant (shoulder), G Ted Larsen (knee) and G Josh Sitton (shoulder). All of them were listed as full participants in practice Friday.

    Parker (finger) was listed as doubtful after being limited in practice Friday and sitting out the first two practices of the week.

    Tennessee listed four players as out, including their top two 2018 draft picks, linebacker Rashaan Evans (hamstring) and outside linebacker Harold Landry(ankle). Evans and Dolphins rookie first-round pick Minkah Fitzpatrick were teammates at the University of Alabama.
