Dolphins' Kyle Louis: Returns to practice Wednesday
Rotowire
The Dolphins opened the 21-day practice window for Louis (knee) on Wednesday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Louis progressed enough in his recovery from a knee injury to be cleared to practice Wednesday, and he was a limited participant in his return. He'll likely need to log consecutive full practices before being activated from IR, but there's a chance that he is given the green light to play against the Jets on Sunday. The rookie fourth-rounder's return would bolster the Dolphins' depth in the secondary and give the team another contributor on special teams.

Louis is set to miss a few weeks due to the knee injury he suffered in last Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Raiders. The Dolphins' defensive back will need to miss at least four games before he can return from IR. With Louis sidelined, Dante Trader is set to be the starting strong safety for the team.

Dolphins' Kyle Louis: Will miss multiple weeks
Rotowire
Louis (knee) will miss a few weeks after exiting Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Raiders early, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Tuesday.
Louis suffered an MCL sprain, and the strong safety will not be able to return to the Dolphins for the Week 2 matchup against the 49ers. The fourth-round rookie was set to be a key piece on both the defensive and special teams units for the Dolphins. In Louis' absence, Julius Wood may be expected to cover some of the young players' responsibilities.

Dolphins' Kyle Louis: Set to miss at least one contest
Rotowire
Louis (knee) is expected to miss the Dolphins' Week 2 matchup against the 49ers, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Louis suffered a knee injury in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Raiders, and he will now be sidelined for at least one contest moving forward. The rookie logged three snaps on defense and 14 snaps with the special-teams unit before his departure in Week 1, and his absence will likely have little impact on the team's defensive approach versus San Francisco.
