Channing Crowder once again absent from Dolphins workout

By at 30 August, 2010, 1:17 pm

Channing Crowder remained out but fellow linebacker Quentin Moses returned to practice as the Dolphins continued preparations for Thursday night’s preseason finale at Dallas Monday with a workout on their outside practice fields. Crowder watched last week’s three days of practice from the sidelines with an undisclosed injury; this week, he hasn’t been on the premises for either of the two workouts, with one more coming up Tuesday. Moses also missed practice all last week with what is believed to be a groin injury but was back in action. Moses may need a solid performance Thursday to hold off younger challengers for a spot on the 53-man roster, which will be set Saturday. Nate Garner, Will Allen and Joey Haynos were also nowhere to be seen.

It’s a good bet coach Tony Sparano will have an update later today on Haynos, who was on crutches Sunday. Position drills were the order of the day in the first 30 minutes of the workout, which was moved outside from the practice bubble at the last minute when the weather cleared. Near the end of the time open to the media receivers were going against defensive backs, at which point free safety Chris Clemons intercepted a pass from Chad Henne that Davone Bess got a hand on but couldn’t catch. The Dolphins are at 76 players, meaning one must be cut by Tuesday’s deadline to get rosters to the mandated 75.
