The Miami Dolphins will have four players listed on their injury report without a designation for Sunday's season opener against the Las Vegas Raiders. Ronnie Harrison, Will Kacmarek, Seydou Traore and Dante Trader Jr. all took part fully in Friday's practice after receiving medical attention during the week.

Harrison and Kacmarek had been limited during Thursday's session, making their return to full participation the latest change in their status. The source does not provide details about the injuries that placed the four players on the report.

Miami coach Jeff Hafley attributed the team's health during training camp to players managing their bodies and spending additional time on recovery before and after practices. He also said that preparation and chance both played a role.

The Dolphins are listed as three-point underdogs against Las Vegas, even though Raiders tight end Brock Bowers has been ruled out. NFL.com writer Brooke Cersosisimo picked the Raiders to win 22-13.

Cersosisimo's forecast cited uncertainty on Miami's offense, including quarterback Malik Willis beginning his first season as a full-time starter and a wide receiver group described as inexperienced. The prediction also pointed to running back De'Von Achane potentially handling a large workload, while identifying Caleb Douglas and Chris Bell as players with potential.

The prediction said Las Vegas could test Willis through the passing game with defensive end Maxx Crosby available. It also described the Raiders as having more established talent and fewer unresolved issues, while noting that their offense is expected to improve from the 14.2 points per game it averaged with Geno Smith in 2025. Kirk Cousins is currently set to lead that unit at quarterback.
