The Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins released their inactive lists before their Week 3 matchup at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday.
Here are the inactive players for the Chiefs:
- TE Jared Wiley
- OL Josh Simmons
- DL Tyreke Smith
- LB Jack Pyburn
- DB Chamarri Conner
- QB Garrett Nussmeier (Emergency Quarterback)
Here are the inactive players for the Dolphins:
- WR Caleb Douglas
- RB Jaylen Wright
- OL DJ Campbell
- OL Chukwuebuka Godrick
- DL Rob Beal Jr.
- DB Marcellas Dial Jr.
- QB Brady Cook (Emergency Quarterback)
During the season, inactives are players ruled out of a game and will not participate, even though they are on the active roster. The Chiefs and their opponent must announce the listed inactive players an hour and a half before kickoff. The designation can be due to injury, coaching decisions, or various other reasons.
To prevent teams from running out of quarterbacks, they can dress an ‘Emergency Third Quarterback’. The player is technically listed as inactive on the sheet but may enter the game only if both the starter and
primary backup are knocked out by injury or disqualification.
