Line: Miami is a 7-point favorite, with an over-under of 44.5.

Injuries: Dolphins — Questionab­le: WR Jakeem Grant (hamstring), Doubtful: QB Tua Tagovailoa (left thumb),

Out: RB Salvon Ahmed (shoulder), OL Solomon Kindley (foot); Jets — Questionab­le: LB Blake Cashman (hamstrings), OL Alex Lewis (not injury related), Doubtful: OL Chuma Edoga (ankle), OL George Fant (knee/ankle), Out: LB Patrick Onwuasor (hamstring)

Noteworthy: Dolphins rookie quarterbac­k Tua Tagovailoa is doubtful to make his fifth career start because of a left thumb injury he sustained in practice this past week. If Tagovailoa is unable to play, Dolphins coach Brian Flores will turn to 1 6 -year veteran Ryan Fitzpatric­k . ... Flores benched Tagovailoa for Fitzpatric­k in the fourth quarter of Miami’s loss last week in Denver, which saw Fitzpatric­k nearly lead a game-tying touchdown drive late. Tagovailoa struggled to move the ball offensivel­y against the Broncos defense and could face a tough test against the Jets defense if he plays. … Jets quarterbac­k Sam Darnold hopes to lead his team to its elusive first victory of the season. Darnold returns to the starting lineup after a shoulder injury. … The Dolphins enter the game winners of five of their past six after their win streak ended in Denver.
