Eifert, Kirkpatrick doubtful for Dolphins game

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert and cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick are listed as doubtful for Thursday night’s game against Miami.

Kirkpatrick missed his third consecutive practice today with a hamstring injury, while Eifert was a limited participant for the sixth straight session since returning to practice last week.

With Kirkpatrick unlikely to play, look for Darqueze Dennard to make his second career start, with Josh Shaw working as the slot corner.

The only other player on the injury report is safety Derron Smith, who is listed as questionable with a chest injury. Smith did not practice Monday or Tuesday but returned on a limited basis today.

The Dolphins have not released their injury report yet.
