Miami Dolphins lose defensive tackle Zach Sieler for season with torn biceps
Veteran defensive tackle Zach Sieler will miss the rest of the season after rupturing his biceps during Sunday's game.
The Miami Dolphins will be without defensive tackle Zach Sieler for the remainder of the season due to a ruptured biceps injury, WPLG Local 10 reported.
According to WSVN 7News, Sieler sustained the injury on the first play of the game against the Detroit Lions and played through the game before the injury was diagnosed. He is expected to undergo season-ending surgery with a recovery time of five to six months.
CBS News Miami added that Sieler, 31, has recorded 24 tackles, seven tackles for loss, and two sacks this season. He is the only player over 30 on Miami's roster, which is the youngest in the NFL.
First-year Dolphins coach Jeff Hafley has praised Sieler's leadership and value to the team, describing him as an important presence for the younger players on the roster.
With Sieler sidelined, the Dolphins will need to adjust their defensive lineup as they continue their season without one of their key veterans.
