With Indianapolis Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett out with an injured left knee http://www.thedolphinslockerroom.com/authentic-kenyan-drake-jersey , Brian Hoyer was set to make his 38th career NFL start with his sixth different team — and his first in more than two years.Hoyer's start against the visiting Miami Dolphins on Sunday marks the QB's first appearance from the get-go since October 2017, when he went 4 for 11 for 34 yards with the San Francisco 49ers.It won't help Hoyer and the Colts that four-time Pro Bowl receiver T.Y. Hilton was going to miss his second consecutive game with an injured calf.Rookie cornerback Rock Ya-Sin starts in place of the injured Pierre Desir for Indianapolis, while the Dolphins have their own issues. They lost leading receiver Preston Williams with a season-ending knee injury in last week's game and No. 1 cornerback Xavien Howard with a season-ending injury the previous week.In Pittsburgh, the Steelers will face the Los Angeles Rams with a banged-up backfield.Running backs James Conner, Benny Snell and fullback Rosie Nix are all out with injuries for the hosts. That leaves Jaylen Samuels and former practice squad players Trey Edmunds and Tony Brooks-James as the top options for the Steelers against a Rams defensive line that includes former University of Pittsburgh star Aaron Donald. Steelers guard Ramon Foster is also inactive for a second straight week while recovering from a concussion suffered against Miami on Oct. 28.The Rams were without wide receiver Brandin Cooks, who has a concussion.ARIZONA AT TAMPA BAYCardinals: WR Damiere Byrd, CB Tramaine Brock Sr., RB Chase Edmonds, S Deionte Thompson, OL Lamont Gaillard, OL Justin Murray, DL Zach Allen.Buccaneers: S Darian Stewart, CB Carlton Davis III, C Nate Trewyn, T Jerald Hawkins, TE Jordan Leggett, OLB Carl Nassib, OLB Anthony Nelson.ATLANTA AT NEW ORLEANSFalcons: S Jamal Carter, DL John Cominsky, OL Matt Gono, WR Brandon Powell, OL Wes Schweitzer, DL Deadrin Senat, CB Desmond Trufant.Saints: CB Patrick Robinson, S Saquan Hampton, C Nick Easton, T Ethan Greenidge, WR Austin Carr, TE Dan Arnold, DE Carl Granderson.BALTIMORE AT CINCINNATIRavens: QB Trace McSorley, WR Chris Moore, WR Jaleel Scott, CB Cyrus Jones, G Ben Powers Womens Walt Aikens Jersey , DT Daylon Mack, DE Ufomba Kamalu.Bengals: QB Jake Colegala, WR A.J.

(AP) — Miami Dolphins players wonder whether Kris Kocurek’s voice will give out, and perhaps they wish it would.Kocurek is in his first year as the defensive line coach, and he operates with high expectations at high energy and volume.“I’ve got to watch where I stand on the field with him,” defensive coordinator Matt Burke said following Thursday’s practice. “Sometimes he’s right there, and I get an earful. … People think it’s an act, and it’s not. That’s just who he is.”Not everything Kocurek shouts can be repeated, but the thrust is he’s trying to turn around a unit that underachieved last year when the Dolphins went 6-10.“I’ll just say this: I have a passion for d-line play,” said Kocurek, with a rasp.More Miami Dolphins newsDolphins sign hometown WR Allen Hurns to 1-year contractNew Dolphins coach Brian Flores has his own daily workout at training campDolphins assistant coach Jim Caldwell takes leave of absence to address health issuesTwo-time Pro Bowl safety Reshad Jones rejoins Dolphins after skipping voluntary practicesDolphins QBs Josh Rosen, Ryan Fitzpatrick embrace battle for No. 1 jobCoach Adam Gase lured Kocurek out of Detroit Womens Jerome Baker Jersey , where he had been the Lion’ defensive line coach. Kocurek joined the Dolphins shortly before five-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh departed, but Gase still believes his front four will be better this year.“Kris has done a really good job of getting to those guys,” Gase said. “They bring it. How they pursue the ball, get back to the line of scrimmage, go to the next play — there’s a lot of energy exerted on one play, and they just move on to the next one. He has developed them. That’s a tough group. They’re really trending in the right direction.”While Kocurek can be hard on his players, he also knows how hard the game can be. The 39-year-old Texas native played at Texas Tech, and after he was drafted in the seventh round, his NFL career lasted one game and four snaps — for Tennessee in 2001.“It was a goal-line situation,” he said. “They stuck me in there, and I just tried to get as low as I could. We actually held them out of there.”After a fifth shoulder operation ended his career, he turned to coaching and reached the NFL as a Lions assistant in 2009. When Detroit coach Jim Caldwell was fired in January, Kocurek came to Miami.“I had the same office for nine years, and all of a sudden you get thrown into a little bit different environment,” he said. “But it has been great. I look forward to cranking my truck in the morning and getting to work as fast as I can.”He’s working with perhaps the team’s deepest unit. While Suh is gone, Miami acquired two-time Pro Bowl end Robert Quinn. Holdovers include ends Cameron Wake, Andre Branch and Charles Harris, and tackles Jordan Phillips, Vincent Taylor and Davon Godchaux.Kocurek yells at all of them.“He’s high energy,” Branch said, “so you have no choice but to be high energy.”Burke said Kocurek’s passionate approach is a good match for the area he coaches.“People might get mad at me for saying this: I think the bigger you get, the more motivated you’ve got to get from somebody externally,” Burke said. “With that group, it takes a little extra yelling and pushing.”Wake, for one, loves Kocurek’s approach.“He’s a guy that’s old school, hard-nosed,” Wake said. “He’s demanding. He doesn’t bite he tongue. He tells you how it is. … I love it. It’s a man’s game and there is no room for softness, especially the d-line. This is not quarterbacks, this is not receivers.”But will Kocurek’s voice make it through training camp?“No,” Wake said. “It has already taken a hit. He’s going to have to get some tea or some honey.”
