Howard has allowed -11.8 target EPA this season, his 3rd-best mark since 2016 | 2022: +23.0 EPA (career-worst)
Updated Thu, Dec 7 at 4:55pm -
Leading tackler in win
Howard logged seven total tackles (five solo), including one tackle for loss, while also breaking up one pass in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: The veteran cornerback was able to log a season-high in tackles Sunday, tying David Long for the Dolphins' leading tackler in Week 11. Through eight appearances, Howard has recorded six pass deflections and one interception, ranking second in both categories for Miami's defense. The All-Pro cornerback tandem of Howard and Jalen Ramsey has been great when they've been on the field together, and they'll continue causing problems for opposing quarterbacks as the season goes on.

Available in Germany
Howard (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs in Frankfurt, Germany.
Analysis: Howard was listed as questionable heading into the weekend after he was a limited participant in practices Wednesday through Friday, but he's not expected to face any restrictions Sunday as the Dolphins aim to slow down Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs' aerial attack. Through six appearances on the season, the four-time Pro Bowl cornerback has recorded 27 tackles, four pass breakups and one interception.

Questionable after limited sessions
Howard (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Howard was limited in all three of Miami's practices ahead of Sunday morning's game in Frankfurt, Germany. The cornerback last took the field in Week 6 against the Panthers. If Howard suits up Sunday, Miami will have the cornerback duo of Howard and Jalen Ramsey active simultaneously for the first time.

Limited Wednesday
Howard (groin) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Howard has missed the Dolphins' last two games, but the limited practice to start the week is a good sign regarding his potential availability for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. With Jalen Ramsey debuting last week, Howard's return will further bolster Miami's secondary. Howard has one interception and four pass breakups this season.

Inactive Sunday
Howard (groin) is inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Analysis: The 30-year-old corner will miss his second game in a row, as he continues to recover from the groin injury that he suffered during Miami's Week 6 win over the Panthers. With Howard missing more time, expect Kader Kohou and Jalen Ramsey (knee) -- who was activated from injured reserve Saturday -- to serve as Miami's starting cornerbacks.

Chance to return Sunday
Howard (groin) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots, David Furones of The South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Howard missed Miami's Week 7 loss to the Eagles with a groin issue, but he was able to return to practice in a limited fashion throughout the week. If the All-Pro cornerback misses his second consecutive game, Cam Smith and Eli Apple will likely have an increased workload in the Dolphins' secondary.

Inactive versus Philadelphia
Howard (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Eagles.
Analysis: Howard suffered a groin injury during Miami's win against the Panthers last week, which will now keep the 30-year-old out of Sunday's matchup. Kader Kohou and Eli Apple will now be tasked with trying to slow down A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

Listed as questionable
The Dolphins have given Howard (groin) a questionable tag for Sunday night's game against the Eagles, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Howard injured his groin in the Dolphins' Week 6 victory over the Panthers and subsequently missed Wednesday's practice. He logged consecutive limited workloads to close out the week to earn a questionable designation. Eli Apple and Cam Smith would be prime candidates to replace Howard's snaps opposite Kader Kohou at corner should he ultimately not get the green light.

Returning to practice Thursday
Howard (groin) will be a limited participant at practice Thursday, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Analysis: Howard takes a positive step towards potentially suiting up in Week 7 by returning to practice Thursday, albeit in a limited capacity. He'll have a shot to play at Philadelphia, but unless he practices in full Friday, he'll likely carry an injury designation into the weekend.

Missing Wednesday's practice
Howard (groin) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Howard left Sunday's win versus the Panthers early with a groin issue, which is evidently still bothering him to begin Miami's week of practice. If he is going to play Sunday at Philadelphia, he'll probably need to register at least a limited practice Thursday or Friday.

Considered day-to-day
Coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Howard (groin) is viewed as day-to-day, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Howard was forced from Sunday's Week 6 win over the Panthers with the groin issue. "We'll see how X calms down and responds to treatment," McDaniel said Monday. The Dolphins face the 5-1 Eagles next Sunday night. Howard's absence would be felt against A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

Back at practice Thursday
Howard (knee) was listed as a limited participant on the Dolphins injury report Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Howard missed his second game of the season Week 17 due to a knee injury picked up at some point before Sunday's loss to New England. The 29-year-old was then sidelined during practice Wednesday, though he's showing signs of progress heading into the must-win regular-season finale against the Jets. Over 14 games this season, Howard has recorded 43 tackles and a team-high nine passes defended, including one pick-six. It will be worth monitoring his status on Miami's final injury report Friday.

Making progress ahead of Week 18
Howard (knee) remained unavailable for practice Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Head coach Mike McDaniel said that Howard wouldn't practice Wednesday, but he's making progress ahead of the Dolphins' must-win regular season finale versus the Jets. The cornerback missed the team's Week 17 loss to the Patriots while nursing a knee injury he suffered at some point following Week 16. If he's unable to go Sunday against New York, Kader Kohou will likely step into a starting role once again.

Ruled out for Week 17
Howard (knee) is among Miami's inactives for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Analysis: Howard was questionable heading into Sunday after logging a limited practice session Thursday and sitting out entirely Friday. He evidently didn't progress enough over the weekend to play against New England and will consequently miss his second game of the campaign. Kader Kohou and Justin Bethel could each see more work in Howard's absence.

Howard (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Howard was limited at practice due to a knee injury, and he was unable to join the Dolphins for practice Friday. However, he'll still be in the mix to suit up in Week 17. If he's unavailable, Kader Kohou and Justin Bethel are candidates to see increased roles.

Added to injury report
Howard (knee) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Howard logged a full practice Wednesday, so this is technically a late-week downgrade for the veteran corner. Whether this was a veteran's rest day or Howard suffered some kind of injury the previous day remains unknown. His practice status for Friday should shed better light on his potential availability for Sunday's pivotal game with the Patriots.

Returns fumble for TD on Sunday
Howard didn't record any tackles in Sunday's Week 12 win over Houston, but he returned a fumble for a touchdown in the second quarter.
Analysis: Howard failed to log a tackle for the first time this season, but he still had a big impact on the outcome. The Baylor alum scooped up a Jordan Akins fumble in the second period and ran untouched to the end zone to extend the Dolphins' lead to 27-0. Howard also logged a pass defense in the victory.

Ready for action
Howard (groin) is active Week 8 agains the Lions.
Analysis: Howard missed enough practice time to warrant a questionable tag this week, but he'll end up suiting up for what is presumed to be his regular starting role. While a solid asset for the Dolphins, Howard's utility as an IDP continues to be limited in 2022 due to a lack of targets his way.

Questionable for Sunday
Howard (groin) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Lions, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: After not practicing Wednesday due to a lingering groin injury, Howard logged back-to-back limited sessions and will likely be a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's 1:00 PM ET kickoff.

Still bothered by groin issue
Howard (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Howard has been bothered by the groin issue since Week 3, and he missed Week 5 against the Jets before returning to face the Vikings this past Sunday. The All-Pro cornerback participated in full at practice Thursday but was back to a limited session Friday. With both Kader Kohou (oblique, questionable) and Keion Crossen (knee, doubtful) also on the injury report, Miami could be very thin at cornerback if Howard is unable to play.

Analysis: The exact severity of his injury isn't clear, and there's no concrete timetable for Howard's return at the moment.

Inks five-year extension
Howard agreed to a five-year contract extension with the Dolphins on Friday, Josina Anderson of CBS Sports reports.
Analysis: Howard had requested a trade ahead of the 2021 campaign before agreeing to a restructured contract last year. However, he'll now be rewarded with a long-term deal to keep him in Miami.

Analysis: Howard requested a trade last offseason but agreed to play under a restructured contract for the 2021 season, in which he notched 50 tackles (39 solo), one sack, 16 pass breakups and five interceptions. Though Howard didn't reach a double-digit INT mark after doing so in 2020, he remains one of the clear top cornerbacks in the NFL and still proved an impact player with two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, and two defensive touchdowns.

Snags another INT
Howard had two tackles (one solo), one pass breakup and one interception during Sunday's win over the Giants.
Analysis: Howard has recorded an interception in back-to-back games, giving him four picks on the season. While the star cornerback isn't close to matching last season's mark of 10 interceptions, he remains the pillar of Miami's defense and could be primed to close out the year strong.

Interception in win
Howard tallied a solo tackle along with an interception in the 33-10 win over the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: Howard recorded only his third interception of the season, a significant decrease from last year where he totaled 10. The star corner's second-quarter interception put the Dolphins in prime position for a touchdown, which essentially put the game away early. Howard could force more interceptions in the next two weeks as he faces off against the Jets and Giants.

Scoop and score vs. Ravens
Howard had five solo tackles and one forced fumble, which he recovered and returned for a touchdown, during Thursday's 22-10 win over the Ravens.
Analysis: Howard's strong performance was one of the key reasons Miami managed to hold Baltimore's passing offense to just 238 yards, and his 49-yard touchdown return on a forced fumble was arguably the team's most important play of the night. Heading into Week 11, Howard will look to do similar damage against a struggling Jets offense.

Analysis: After sitting out the Week 6 loss to the Jaguars due to the pair of injuries, Howard managed limited participation in practices Wednesday through Friday. The cornerback has seemingly avoided any setbacks in the process, so he looks like he'll avoid the inactive list ahead of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Howard (shoulder/groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons, David Furones of the Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Howard missed last week's loss to the Jaguars due to the two injuries but was able to practice on a limited basis throughout the week. With fellow cornerbacks Noah Igbinoghene (knee) and Byron Jones (Achilles/groin) both questionable as well, Miami's beat-up secondary could have a hard time containing Atlanta's passing game. Top Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley will be an especially appealing fantasy option if Howard ultimately sits out.

Analysis: Howard has been unable to take the practice field for two consecutive days as he continues to deal with shoulder and groin injuries. He'll presumably need to practice in some capacity Friday if he hopes to play Sunday against the Jaguars.

Dealing with injuries
Howard (shoulder/groin) did not practice Wednesday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Howard is the pillar of Miami's secondary and arguably of the team's entire defense, so he can scarcely afford to miss time. His status will need to be monitored during the final two practices of the week and leading up to Sunday's game in Jacksonville.

First INT of 2021
Howard managed two tackles (one solo), two pass breakups and one interception during Sunday's 35-0 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Howard was one of the lone bright spots on the field for Miami during Sunday's divisional blowout loss. The star cornerback has already more than proven his worth after an offseason that featured a drawn out contract dispute, as in Week 1 he forced and recovered a game-winning fumble versus New England.

Resolves contract dispute
Howard and the Dolphins agreed Sunday to a restructured contract that will include additional money and guarantees, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: In most cases, players agree to restructured deals to lower their cap number and make their contracts more tenable for teams, but according to Garafolo, Howard -- who signed a five-year, $76.5 million extension in May 2019 -- is believed to be the first player with at least four years remaining on his contract to have more money and guarantees tacked on to his deal. At least for the upcoming season, Howard's restructured deal is expected to quell the cornerback's desire to be traded elsewhere.…read more

Back at practice
Howard (ankle) is present at the Dolphins' Saturday practice, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Analysis: Howard was sidelined at Friday's practice due to an ankle injury, but it looks like the issue is not too serious. Barring any setbacks, look for the team's No. 1 cornerback to fully participate in the team's Saturday activities.

Fails to practice Monday
Howard (ankle) didn't participate in Monday's practice, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Howard has been dealing with an ankle injury and recently had a setback that kept him out of Monday's session, per Salguero. It wouldn't be surprising to see the team proceed with caution with their top corner this early in August.

Leaves practice field early
Howard (undisclosed) logged an early departure at Thursday's practice due to injury, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Howard left practice due to an apparently minor injury after participating in warmups, according to Beasley. Given the context that Howard officially requested a trade just three days ago, it seems likely that he'd err on the side of caution in any situation involving his health. Unless the Dolphins give further word, it can probably be assumed that the star cornerback is only dealing with something minor.

Officially requests trade
Howard has officially requested to be traded by the Dolphins, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Howard reported Tuesday morning for the start of training camp, but he's unhappy with the lack of progress toward a new contract and indicated he doesn't believe the team is negotiating in good faith. He inked a five-year, $75.25 million extension in May 2019 that temporarily made him the highest paid corner in the league, though he's since been passed by multiple players and is unhappy with the four remaining years on the deal. At the close of the statement Howard said, "Until that trade…read more

Shows up for camp
Howard reported Tuesday morning for the start of Dolphins training camp, ESPN's Cameron Wolfe reports.
Analysis: Howard signed a five-year, $75.25 million extension in May 2019, temporarily becoming the highest-paid cornerback in the NFL. He's since been passed by a handful of players, including teammate Byron Jones, and now is asking for a new contract despite having four years remaining on his current deal. Howard does have an argument after leading the NFL in pass defenses (20) and interceptions (10) last season, but he's opted against prolonging his holdout from June minicamp.

Skipping minicamp
Howard won't report to mandatory minicamp while attempting to secure a new contract, Joe Schad of the Palm Beach Post reports.
Analysis: The 27-year-old inked a five-year, $75 million extension in May 2019 and has four years remaining on that deal, but he's seeking a raise after earning All-Pro honors in 2020 while recording 10 interceptions and allowing a 53.0 passer rating when targeted. Teammate Byron Jones is one of five cornerbacks in the league with a higher average annual salary, and Howard wants to be higher up that list following a stellar season. He could be fined up to $93,000 if he sits out the full minicamp, though…read more

Manages double-digit INTs in 2020
Howard recorded 51 tackles (40 solo), 20 defended passes, 10 interceptions and one forced fumble across 16 games in 2020.
Analysis: Howard earned first team All-Pro honors for his outstanding play in 2020, as he notched career-best marks in terms of tackles and interceptions while also leading the NFL in passes defensed. The 27-year-old only allowed a 53.0 passer rating to opposing quarterbacks who targeted him, per Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site, the best mark among all cornerbacks in the league (minimum 40 targets). Howard and Byron Jones will return as one of the NFL's most formidable cornerback tandems…read more

Leads league in INTs
Howard recorded one tackle, two defended passes and one interception during Sunday's 24-0 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Howard has now recorded one interception in each of his last four contests, tying Kendall Fuller for the league lead. He's also gone back-to-back games without allowing a catch on eight combined targets. As Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports, Howard leads the league with 16 interceptions since December 2017, despite having missed 15 games in that span. He'll look to continue solidifying his reputation as the league's top ball hawk versus the Rams in Week 8.

Howard (knee) was a full participant in Friday's practice and does not have an injury designation for Sunday's season opener in New England, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Howard was limited throughout training camp while rehabbing from December knee surgery, but his complete lack of an injury status for Week 1 serves to shed any lingering concerns about his health.

Howard (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice session, Hal Habib of the Palm Beach Post reports.

Uncertain about season opener
Howard (knee) said he is feeling good but is unsure if he'll be ready for Week 1's matchup versus the Patriots, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Howard underwent surgery in December, and although it was considered just a knee scope, the cornerback is still feeling the effects. While he's in danger of missing the season opener, Howard shouldn't be out too much longer. If he's forced to miss time, however, rookie Noah Igbinoghene will likely start in his place in base defense.

Making progress
Coach Brian Flores said Thursday that Howard (knee) is "trending in the right direction," Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Howard was activated off both the PUP and reserve/COVID-19 lists last week, so it's encouraging to see that he's made progress in practice. The 27-year-old will occupy a starting spot at cornerback opposite Byron Jones when healthy, and it looks like he's trending in the right direction for the Week 1 matchup against the Patriots on Sept. 13.

Not a lock for Week 1
Coach Brian Flores is non-committal about the chances of Howard (knee) being ready for the beginning of the 2020 season, Barry Jackson and Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald report.
Analysis: Howard, who has spent the last seven days on the reserve/COVID-19 list, is also recovering from December knee surgery. The 27-year-old has proven to be one of the best cornerbacks in the league when healthy, but he's missed 24 games across the first four years of his NFL career. In the event that Howard is unable to suit up against New England in Week 1, rookie first-round pick Noah Igbinoghene and Nik Needham would be candidates to start opposite Byron Jones.

Facing uncertain timeline
Coach Brian Flores declined to put a timetable on Howard (knee) returning to the field Wednesday, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Howard had knee surgery more than seven months ago and was placed on the PUP list Tuesday. His five-year, $76.5 million contract is one of the largest in the league for a cornerback, but he's missed 24 games through four seasons, including 11 last year alone. It isn't clear if the Dolphins expect Howard to be ready for Week 1.

Analysis: Howard had knee surgery more than seven months ago and at this stage it's unclear when the cornerback will be ready to practice.

Needs healthy campaign
Howard (knee) should be fully healthy to kick off the 2020 season after having missed a combined 15 games over the last two years, Omar Kelly reports.
Analysis: Howard offers Miami a dominant corner when healthy, but in four years with the team, he's only managed to put together one full 16-game slate due to recurring knee injuries. The soon-to-be 27-year-old is optimistic that his December procedure will eliminate the lingering pain that limited him to just five games in 2019. If Howard is indeed able to bounce back to his usual Pro Bowl level, he and Byron Jones could combine to form one of the most imposing cornerback tandems in the league in 2020.

Howard (knee) won't face a suspension after the NFL completed its investigation into his domestic incident from December, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports.
Analysis: The 26-year-old was arrested for domestic battery and had the charges dropped in February, but until Wednesday, the league was still holding its own investigation into the matter. Howard appeared in only five games in 2019 before undergoing knee surgery shortly after landing on injury reserve.

Goes under knife
Howard underwent surgery on his knee Wednesday, Safid Deen of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Coach Brian Flores nonetheless said that it's too early in the process to estimate whether Howard will be ready for OTAs, according to Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post. The 2016 second-round pick notched 17 tackles (12 solo), four defended passes and one interception across five contests in 2019.
