The Miami Dolphins are set to host the New England Patriots on Sunday in Week 8 of the NFL season. The Patriots will be without top offensive players A.J. Brown and TreVeyon Henderson, both ruled out due to unspecified issues. Brown has been limited this season, appearing in just three games and recording nine catches for 101 yards. Henderson, a second-round pick last year, has contributed 203 rushing yards and a touchdown this season. With these absences, the Dolphins will likely concentrate on containing Rhamondre Stevenson and Corey Kiner in the Patriots' backfield.
