Dolphins 1st-round pick Tunsil inactive vs. Titans after pregame injury

Miami Dolphins offensive lineman Laremy Tunsil is a surprise inactive for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans.

Tunsil wasn't listed on this week's injury report, leading some to speculate that he was a healthy scratch as a performance-based decision. However, the first-round rookie appears to have suffered an injury in warmups.

Tunsil, considered by many to be the potential No. 1 overall pick ahead of this year's draft, started each of the first four games of the season at left guard.

He'll almost certainly transition to left tackle in place of Branden Albert at some point in the near future, but the Dolphins have yet to establish any sort of timeline for that move.

Miami enters Week 5 having surrendered 11 sacks, tied for the seventh-highest total across the league.
