News

  • Cleared for Week 16

    Baker (ankle) does not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Packers, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Baker was forced to exit Miami's Week 15 loss to the Bills early, though he managed to play the majority of the game. He practiced throughout the week without issue and is in line to suit up for a pivotal Week 16 matchup against the Packers.

  • Forced out of game

    Baker is listed as questionable to return to Saturday's game against the Bills after injuring his ankle.

    Analysis: The middle linebacker had tallied four tackles before leaving in the fourth quarter. Duke Riley and Sam Eguavoen could see more playing time as a result.

  • Tallies half-sack

    Baker recorded 12 tackles (six solo) and a half-sack during Sunday's 33-17 loss to the 49ers.

    Analysis: Baker has 1.5 sacks in his last two games, production that has coincided with Bradley Chubb getting more involved on defense following Miami's bye. The starting linebacker has recorded double-digit stops just twice this season, but he has some good momentum to carry into Week 14's game against the Chargers.

  • Records sack in Week 5

    Baker amassed four tackles (three solo), one sack and one pass defensed during Sunday's 40-17 loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: Baker's four stops Sunday versus the Jets now gives him sole possession as the team's tackling leader (22) through the first five games this season. The fifth-year linebacker never left the field when Maimi was on defense in Week 5, and he'll likely command a similar role Sunday against the Vikings.

  • Seven tackles in loss

    Baker made seven tackles (five solo) in Thursday's 27-15 loss to the Bengals.

    Analysis: Baker led the Dolphins' defense in tackles Thursday, making seven stops. The linebacker is tied with Brandon Jones for the team lead in tackles, compiling 27 total over the first four contests of the campaign.

  • Makes double-digit stops

    Baker notched 13 tackles (nine solo) and one pass breakup during Sunday's 21-19 win over the Bills.

    Analysis: Baker put forth his best effort of the season Week 3, after combining for seven total tackles in Miami's previous two games. The 25-year-old isn't one of the most trustworthy fantasy options for IDP purposes, but the Dolphins will need him to keep up this momentum Thursday versus Cincinnati.

  • Underwhelms in 2021

    Baker notched 92 tackles (62 solo), 5.5 sacks, four pass breakups, one interception and one forced fumble across 16 appearances in 2021.

    Analysis: Baker saw his numbers decline in terms of both tackles and sacks despite appearing in the same amount of contests as he did in 2020, and maintaining an every-down role on defense. That said, he did end the 2021 campaign on a high note, with 26 tackles and 4.5 sacks in his last four appearances. The 25-year-old will attempt to bounce back under a new head couch during the 2022 season, after which the Dolphins could evaluate a potential 'out' in his contract.

  • Keeps up sack streak

    Baker notched seven tackles (six solo) and one sack during Sunday's 34-3 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: Baker remains one of the bright spots of Miami's defensive front, and a Week 18 divisional matchup against the Patriots could once again provide him significant opportunities as a run stopper. In his last three appearances, Baker has racked up 4.5 sacks.

  • Dominant in divisional win

    Baker notched seven tackles (four solo) and two sacks during Sunday's win over the Jets.

    Analysis: Baker played his usual every-down role Sunday and managed to torment New York quarterback Zach Wilson, bringing him to three sacks on the season. Looking ahead to Week 16, Baker will get a chance to keep up his momentum against a Saints offense that could be without top tackles Terron Armstead (knee) and Ryan Ramczyk (knee).

  • Just four stops on TNF

    Baker had four solo tackles during Thursday's 22-10 win over the Ravens.

    Analysis: Baker only has one sack on the season, and he hasn't notched double-digit tackles since Week 1. Despite being an every-down player and one of the Dolphins' top defensive contributors, Baker's lack of big games means he can't be considered a must-start option in IDP fantasy formats. That said, Week 11's matchup against the Jets could provide more opportunities for impact plays.

  • Avoids injury designation

    Baker (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Thursday's game against the Ravens, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Baker has been dealing with a knee injury, but he practiced with no limitations Wednesday and is ready for Week 10. The 24-year-old played through the injury Sunday against the Texans and recorded seven tackles (five solo) and an interception.

    Baker (knee) was a limited participant in Monday's practice.

    Analysis: Baker managed to play through his knee injury during Sunday's 17-9 win over the Texans, when he notched seven tackles (five solo), one pass breakup and one interception. Next up, the Dolphins face a quick turnaround before Thursday's matchup against the Ravens.

  • Will play Sunday

    Baker (knee) is active for Sunday's contest against the Texans.

    Analysis: Baker was a limited participant during practices this week, but he will be available for the Dolphins' Week 9 matchup against the Texans. When healthy, the 2018 third-round pick has played the majority of Miami's defensive snaps this season, but it's unclear if he will be on a snap count after his one-game absence.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Baker (knee) is questionable for Sunday against the Texans, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Baker was unable to play in Week 8 after suffering the injury early in Week 7. The 2018 third-round pick had been one of the Dolphins' biggest contributors on defense this season, so his return would be a big boost to their linebacker group.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Baker (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Bills, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Baker has been a limited participant at practices throughout the week and is considered questionable heading into the Dolphins' Week 8 matchup with the Bills. If he is unable to suit up, Duke Riley will likely see increased snaps.

  • Hopes to play Sunday

    Baker (knee) is considered day-to-day and hopes to play Sunday against the Bills, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Baker avoided a serious knee injury when he went down in the team's Week 7 matchup against the Falcons and was limited in practice Wednesday. If he's unable to suit up against Buffalo, Duke Riley will likely handle increased work.

  • Limited Wednesday

    Baker (knee) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Baker left the Dolphins 'Week 7 contest against the Falcons early in the first half. He proceeded to undergo an MRI -- which came back clean -- and it was ultimately determined that his injury isn't serious. Whether or not his availability for Week 8 against Buffalo is in jeopardy is not yet known, but getting in even a limited practice session this far from Sunday is a positive sign.

  • Injury not considered serious

    Baker (knee) isn't believed to be dealing with a serious injury after he exited Sunday's loss to the Falcons, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Baker underwent an MRI after Sunday's game that came back clean, and he continues to receive encouraging news regarding his injury. His status for Sunday's Week 8 matchup against the Bills will likely come into focus based on his participation in practice this week, and Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports that Baker's currently viewed as day-to-day.

  • MRI comes back clean

    Baker (knee) underwent an MRI after leaving Sunday's game early, but the results came back clean, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Baker's MRI was considered precautionary, and as expected, he suffered no major injury to his knee. This is great news for Miami's defense, as the 24-year-old linebacker has played 97 percent of the Dolphins' defensive snaps this season.

  • Getting MRI

    Baker (knee) is set to undergo an MRI after exiting Sunday's game against Atlanta, according to Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com.

    Analysis: Baker is getting a precautionary MRI after leaving Sunday's game against the Falcons with a knee injury, but his absence could be a huge blow for the Dolphins' defensive line. He signed a three-year, $37.5 million extension this offseason and has been a constant presence on the team this year.

  • Won't return against Falcons

    Baker (knee) was ruled out of Sunday's game against the Falcons.

    Analysis: Baker suffered the knee injury in the first half and originally was deemed questionable to return. He's been a key member in the middle of the Dolphins' defense this season, racking up 43 tackles through seven contests.

  • Suffers knee injury

    Baker suffered a knee injury and is questionable to return Sunday against the Falcons, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Baker suffered the injury in the first quarter of the game after tallying one tackle. He also suffered a head injury in the team's Week 6 matchup, so he has had to battle multiple injuries in recent weeks.

  • Returns from head injury

    Baker (head) re-entered Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Jaguars in the second quarter, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports. The linebacker finished the contest with eight tackles (five solo) and three quarterback hits.

    Analysis: Baker was shaken up on the Jaguars' first possession of the game in the first quarter and went to the sideline to be evaluated for a head injury. He apparently cleared all concussion tests and was able to check back into the contest for the Dolphins' next defensive drive. The 25-year-old will head into the Dolphins' Week 7 matchup with the Falcons with 42 tackles, one sack and one forced fumble through six games.

  • Sustains head injury

    Baker picked up a head injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London and is questionable to return.

  • Picks up first sack

    Baker racked up eight tackles (seven solo) and one sack during Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Baker has 35 total stops through five contests, but so far he hasn't come close to repeating his success as a pass rusher from 2020. During the Dolphins' upcoming road matchup against Jacksonville, Baker will look to get back on track and get some pressure against Trevor Lawrence.

  • Racks up 12 tackles

    Baker recorded 12 tackles (eight solo) during Sunday's 17-16 win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: Baker played all but one defensive snap and led Miami in tackles during the season opener. The 24-year-old inked a three-year, $39 million extension over the summer and is poised for another 100-plus tackle campaign for the Dolphins if he remains healthy, making him a strong IDP option.

  • Signs three-year extension

    Baker signed a three-year, $39 million extension with the Dolphins on Sunday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Baker's extension includes $28.4 million in guaranteed money. Miami's 2018 third-round pick has been a tackling machine, totaling 126 in 2019 and 112 last season. The linebacker is a key cog in the Dolphins defense and now will be paid as such.

  • Another 100-tackle season

    Baker had 112 tackles (70 solo), seven sacks, three defended passes and two forced fumbles through 16 games with the Dolphins in 2020.

    Analysis: Baker once again performed to a high level in IDP fantasy formats, making up for a slight downtick in stops (126 tackles in 2019) with more consistent sack numbers. The 24-year-old played a slightly more specialized role in Miami's linebacker corps in 2020 than he did last season, as exemplified by his defensive snap count decreasing by 225, but his improved efficiency served to effectively supplement his numbers. Baker is set to return to a starting role in 2021, when he'll play out the final…read more

  • Closing in on 100 stops

    Baker made eight tackles (seven solo) and a sack in Sunday's 22-12 win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: Baker leads the Dolphins by a comfortable margin with 98 total tackles, and he's added six sacks, which is tied for second on the team. The third-year linebacker continues to make his mark in the NFL, as he's set to eclipse the 100-tackle threshold for a consecutive season.

  • Ready to rock

    Baker (knee) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Baker came into the contest drawing the questionable tag, so it's positive news to see the Ohio State product suiting up. Baker has been strong in a starting role this season, racking up 90 tackles (55 solo), five sacks and a forced fumble. Now healthy, expect Baker to assume his usual starting role at linebacker.

  • Deemed questionable for Sunday

    Baker (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Patriots, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Baker was absent from the injury report until surfacing as a limited participant Friday. It's always concerning when a player is added late in the practice week, so he's likely a game-time decision for the divisional bout. Fellow starting linebacker Elandon Roberts (chest) is also questionable. If Roberts and Baker -- who leads the Dolphins with 90 tackles -- can't go, Calvin Munson and Kamu Grugier-Hill are the likely candidates to start at inside linebacker.

  • Notches 2.5 sacks

    Baker had eight tackles (five solo) and 2.5 sacks during Sunday's 33-27 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: The 23-year-old cost the Chiefs 37 yards between the two sacks, as he brought down Patrick Mahomes for a 30-yard loss and a near safety during the first quarter. Baker has been a solid IDP option this season with 89 tackles (55 solo), five sacks and one forced fumble in 13 games.

  • Tackling machine in Week 8 upset

    Baker collected 13 total tackles, one QB hit and one pass deflection during Sunday's 28-17 win against the Rams.

    Analysis: Baker is yet to register an interception or a fumble recovery in his seven appearances this season, though he has been a steady contributor with at least six tackles in all but one of his outings. The 2018 third-round pick also has two sacks on the season, just one shy of his career high with nine games left to go. Baker has really been dialing it up in pass rush of late, recording three QB hits over his past three games played.

  • Disruptive in upset win

    Baker had a team-high eight tackles (seven solo) during Sunday's 43-17 win over the 49ers. He also notched one sack and two quarterback hits.

    Analysis: After three relatively quiet games, Baker has finally strung together a performance somewhat resembling his game-wrecking Week 1 showing. The third-year linebacker hasn't yet proven the sort of consistency that would make him a high-end IDP asset, but Baker's upside nonetheless puts him in the conversation as an every-week fantasy option.

  • Six tackles in loss

    Baker racked up six tackles (one solo) in Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Baker followed up a huge Week 1 performance with a quieter day, but he still played 93-percent of his team's defensive snaps, proving his value to Miami's defensive scheme. Baker and the Dolphins will take on the Jaguars in Week 3.

  • Enormous effort in loss

    Baker notched 16 tackles (13 solo), one sack, one quarterback hit and a forced fumble during Sunday's 21-11 loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: Baker led the Dolphins in tackles and looked like the team's clear top linebacker during Sunday's divisional loss. The 2018 third-round pick's consistent tackle numbers already make him a noteworthy IDP asset, so if he's able to continue building momentum as a pass rusher this season, Baker could emerge as a third-year breakout candidate. Of course, it's likely that facing an opposing quarterback as mobile as Cam Newton served to accentuate Baker's tackle and sack opportunities Week 1.

  • Not on injury report

    Baker is not on Wednesday's injury report, Hal Habib of the Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Baker picked up an undisclosed injury a couple weeks ago, but his name doesn't appear on Miami's first official injury report of the season, so the 2018 third-round pick should be out there for the season opener come Sunday.

  • Dealing with mystery injury

    Baker is battling an undisclosed injury, Safid Deen of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Baker suffered the injury during Friday's practice but walked off the field under his own power. There are still no reports on Baker's condition, but it's concerning that he hasn't returned to the field yet. If he gets back to full health, the 23-year-old linebacker is poised to start again this season after racking up 126 stops, 1.5 and four pass breakups in 2019.

  • Activated from COVID-19 list

    The Dolphins have activated Baker off the team's reserve/COVID-19 list.

    Analysis: The 2018 third-rounder is thus poised to return to his role as a starting inside linebacker in Miami's defense. It's an assignment that yielded him a fantasy-worthy total of 126 tackles to go along with 1.5 sacks in 2019.

  • Going on COVID list

    The Dolphins placed Baker on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday.

    Analysis: Baker ranked fifth in defensive snap share (96.8 percent) among all linebackers last season, finishing 14th in the NFL with 126 tackles. On top of that, he tallied four pass breakups, two forced fumbles, 1.5 sacks and one interception. His inclusion on the COVID list implies he either tested positive and has had recent contact with someone who did. Once he's cleared to enter the Dolphins' facilities, Baker will resume manning inside linebacker on a revamped defense.

  • Big tackling day in finale

    Baker recorded nine tackles (six solo) and one forced fumble during Sunday's 27-24 win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: Baker set career-best marks across the board in 2019, notching a team-high 127 tackles (77 solo), 1.5 sacks, four defended passes, one interception and two forced fumbles. The 2018 third-round pick will likely reprise his role as a starting interior linebacker in Miami come 2020, making him a strong candidate for repeated IDP relevance.

    Baker (ankle) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Patriots, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Baker practiced without restrictions Friday, an indication that he's fully shed the ankle issue that limited him Thursday. The second-year pro is on track to play his usual every-down role in Miami's linebacker corps during Sunday's season finale in New England.

  • Limited Thursday

    Baker was limited in Thursday's practice due to an ankle issue, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Baker wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, so his ankle issue may have been sustained during practice. In any case, there's not yet any reason to worry about his availability for Sunday's divisional contest against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Baker has now notched 12 tackles in two consecutive contests. The second-year pro has already recorded a career-high 118 tackles (71 solo) through 15 games. He'll look to add to that total during Week 17's divisional tilt against the Patriots.

  • Leads team in tackles

    Baker notched 12 tackles (six solo), one defended pass and one interception during Sunday's 36-20 loss to the Giants.

    Analysis: Baker notched his first interception of the season during Sunday's loss. He also matched his career-best mark for tackles in a single contest. The second-year pro is a solid fantasy option in IDP formats due to his high floor as a run stopper.

  • Totals nine tackles

    Baker had nine tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 22-21 loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: Baker had a relatively quiet Week 13 with only four stops, but he rebounded with solid production against the Jets. The 2018 second-round pick has been a quality IDP producer this season with 95 tackles (58 solo), one sack and one forced fumble through 13 games.

  • Ready to rock

    Baker (chest) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Baker was a full participant in Friday's practice. The second-year pro is on track to draw his usual start at inside linebacker during Sunday's divisional tilt against the Jets.

  • Leaves game Sunday

    Baker (chest) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Eagles, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: It's unclear how Baker picked up the injury, but he was forced to leave the game late in the third quarter. As long as the Ohio State product is sidelined, look for Deon Lacey to be the primary beneficiary to see an increase in snaps at inside linebacker and on special teams.

  • Solid tackling day

    Baker notched seven tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Browns.

    Analysis: Baker has now tallied at least seven tackles in his last five games. The second-year linebacker's consistency stopping the run makes him a viable weekly IDP asset, but his lack of upside as a pass rusher puts a slight cap on his ceiling.

  • Stacks up stops

    Baker tallied 12 tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Baker achieved a career high in stops, and the sophomore third-rounder is on track for 120 tackles this season. He's only 22 years old too, so Baker's upward trajectory is appealing, especially once the Dolphins leverage their assortment of draft picks into additional defensive support over the next few years.

  • Tallies sack in win

    Baker notched eight tackles (seven solo), one sack and one forced fumble during Sunday's 16-12 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Baker had his best outing of the season Sunday, recording his first sack of the year by bringing down quarterback Brian Hoyer. The second-year pro's strong performance as a run stopper proved essential as Miami secured a second win. He'll look to keep up the momentum during Week 11's divisional tilt against Buffalo.
