Reinforcements could be coming for the Miami Dolphins, as Xavien Howard is reportedly expected to suit up in their Week 7 match against the Atlanta Falcons.
Unfortunately, DeVante Parker is apparently questionable to play and is still recovering from various injuries.
#Dolphins WR DeVante Parker is listed as questionable with shoulder and hamstring ailments, and he appears to have an uphill battle to play today, source said. A chance, but not a great one. CB Xavien Howard (shoulder, groin) should be good today.

Sitting at 1-5, the Dolphins surely need to get back on winning track if they want to keep their playoff hopes alive.
But with several players missing time due to injuries, Miami has found it difficult to field a strong lineup.
Parker missed the team’s last two games. In four matches this season, the wide receiver has 242 receiving yards and one touchdown.
Howard, on the other hand, did not play against the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. Aside from nursing some injuries, the cornerback has also probably had to deal with hearing his name in trade rumors.
A win against the Falcons on Sunday will snap Miami’s five-game losing streak.
