Raheem Mostert (thumb) misses another Dolphins practice
Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (thumb) was not seen practicing on Thursday.
What It Means:
Mostert broke his thumb in the Dolphins' regular-season finale and is uncertain for Sunday's wild-card matchup with the Buffalo Bills. Jeff Wilson will likely play a three-down role in the backfield if Mostert is unavailable. Skylar Thompson is expected to start for the Dolphins in Buffalo, so Mike McDaniel will likely try to run the ball as much as possible.
Mostert led the Dolphins with 181 carries for 891 yards and 3 touchdowns in 16 games this season. Among the 33 running backs with at least 150 attempts, Mostert is 13th in Rushing Net Expected Points per carry (0.06). Wilson ranks 10th (0.07) in that same group, so the Dolphins' running game shouldn't be impacted too much by Moster's availability.
