Rotowire
Jackson (toe) is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Commanders, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Jackson practiced for the first time since picking up a nagging toe injury in Week 1 at Indianapolis this week, but it appears more likely than not he'll have to wait at least one more week before returning to game action. Larry Borom would figure to make another start at right tackle in Week 11 in that case.

Dolphins' Austin Jackson: Steps into leadership role
Rotowire
Jackson (knee) is the Dolphins' longest-tenured player along the offensive line following the retirement of Terron Armstead and is poised for a leadership role in 2025, in addition to his starting duties at right tackle, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN reports.
Jackson becomes the leader of a group introducing a new starter at right guard in James Daniels (Achilles), and relying on 2024 second-round pick Patrick Paul to develop into a starting-quality left tackle after a rough rookie year. With Jackson now healthy after having his 2024 campaign cut short due to a knee injury, Miami's chances of avoiding disastrously low quality O-line play rest in no small part on the right tackle's shoulders.

Jackson (knee) won't play Monday against the Rams, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

With the 2020 first-round draft pick unable to suit up Monday, Kendall Lamm or Patrick Paul could start at right tackle for Miami. According to Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com, head coach Mike McDaniel said Jackson's knee issue isn't viewed as season-ending, but the 25-year-old might need surgery to address the injury.

Dolphins' Austin Jackson: Could play Week 16
Rotowire
Jackson (oblique) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Jackson exited Miami's Week 15 win over the Jets after sustaining an oblique injury, but he was able to record a limited practice session Friday after opening up the team's week of practice with back-to-back DNPs. Kendall Lamm would likely assume the Dolphins' top right tackle duties if Jackson is unable to go Sunday.
Jackson agreed to a three-year, $36 million contract extension with the Dolphins on Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Jackson, a 2020 first-round pick, is in the midst of an impressive 2023 campaign, in which he finally appears to have put it all together on the field after some early-career struggles. The Dolphins declined Jackson's $14.18 million team option for 2024 last offseason after ankle issues limited him to just three games in 2022, but the right tackle now gets a long-term deal to stay in Miami and safeguard Tua Tagovailoa's blindside.
