The Miami Dolphins' upcoming opponents faced a tough start to the 2024 season, with the Cleveland Browns, Los Angeles Rams, and Green Bay Packers each losing key offensive players to injuries.
Jordan Love of the Packers is among those sidelined, while the Rams' Puka Nacua was placed on injured reserve. Although injuries could impact these teams temporarily, none are season-ending, meaning the Dolphins will likely face these players later in the season.
Additionally, the Cleveland Browns have further issues as their quarterback, Deshaun Watson, struggles amidst reports of a new lawsuit against him.
The New York Jets, in their opener, displayed deficiencies that overshadowed Aaron Rodgers' individual performance, leading to a disappointing loss against the San Francisco 49ers, who now look formidable.
Former Dolphins players also made headlines in their respective debut games with new teams, highlighting the ongoing transition in the league.
