The Miami Dolphins face Jaylen Waddle, who left the game with a serious knee injury. Now they will be without Grant DuBose, who suffered a serious head injury in the third quarter of the game against the Houston Texans.

More news: Dolphins’ Jaylen Waddle leaves game with scary knee injury

DuBose first caught a pass over the middle of the field and was hit by Texas defender Calen Bullock. He was immediately looked after by the coaching staff, who began to stabilize the young receiver.

As of this writing, DuBose is still on the floor and a host of training staff are preparing to move the young receiver. The scene looks pretty grim as players have knelt to offer support.

DuBose will be loaded onto a car and will likely go straight to a local hospital to be examined by doctors. The hope is that he only suffered a concussion, although the nature of that injury looks very scary.

DuBose had to cut off his jersey and unscrew his face mask. The training staff takes great care to ensure that it is not moved inappropriately. The Dolphins’ pass catcher was also hooked up to an IV.

The injury is a frightening scene and the hope is that DuBose can come through the injury with full function. As previously mentioned, he will be taken to hospital for further evaluation and the team will provide updates as necessary.

DuBose was named to the game to provide support for the numerous Dolphins receivers who are out. With Waddle also unlikely to return, the team is already stretched thin at the pass-catching position.

The Dolphins are looking for their seventh win of the season, which will bring the team back to a .500 record. A big win against the Texans will also take them one step closer to a possible wild card playoff spot. However, they are fighting for this spot with the Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos.

Miami lost Tua Tagovailoa to a concussion that nearly derailed their season. Tagovailoa has been on fire since his return, but the Dolphins need to beat top-ranked AFC teams to not only secure a playoff spot, but to be considered a viable playoff contender.

They have to try to beat the Texans without Waddle and DuBose. Hopefully the news about DuBose is positive after the terrible blow he suffered.
