The Splash Zone 10/8/21: Byron Jones Back At Practice

The Dolphins were without Bryon Jones at Wednesday's practice due to the cornerback dealing with a quad and Achilles injury. But we got some good news yesterday when Jones was back at practice and this defense is going to need all the help it can get on Sunday when they take on the Buccaneers. Raekwon Davis also practiced again after being designated to return to practice. Having Davis back would be a big boost for a defense that hasn’t been living up to last year’s standards.

You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day’s round-up below.
