The Miami Dolphins may have lost their Week 9 game against the Detroit Lions 19-9 at Hard Rock Stadium, but that was nothing compared to the loss they’ll feel now without one of their team captains.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Dolphins defensive lineman Zach Sieler ruptured his biceps on the first play of Sunday’s game and continued to play through the injury. Now, he’s set to have season-ending surgery with a 5-6 month recovery time table.

Sieler, 31, signed a three-year, $64 million extension in 2025 that ties him to the team through the 2029 season. Prior to the injury, many wondered whether the Dolphins would try to trade him ahead of the deadline, but that’s clearly not happening now.
More to come…
