Brandon Marshall Misses Second Dolphins Practice With Hamstring Injury

Filed under: ,

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brandon Marshall was a no show for the second straight practice, at least during the brief portion open to the media Wednesday morning, as speculation about the extent of his hamstring injury continues to grow.

On Tuesday the brash wideout appeared on The Michael Irvin Show again on 560-WQAM and danced around his health when pressed by the hosts, falling back on the team's policy that nobody but Dolphins coach Tony Sparano can talk about injuries. Irvin's co-host, Kevin Kiley, tried to sneak one past Marshall by asking him what Sparano would say about his hamstring but Marshall didn't fall for it.

Through 10 games, Marshall has caught a team-high 58 passes for 693 yards but just one touchdown and has fallen off his pace to exceed 100 receptions for the fourth consecutive season. It was late in the first half of last Thursday night's 16-0 home loss to the Chicago Bears when Marshall suffered the injury and had to be helped off the field. He did not return, watching the second half from the sideline in street clothes next to injured quarterback Chad Pennington, who is on IR with a bad shoulder.
