Kalen Ballage makes NFL debut in loss to the Patriots.

Ballage rushed once for three yards in the 38-7 defeat. Miami’s fourth-round pick was a healthy inactive for the first three weeks of the season, but perhaps he will earn some more touches as the season progresses. Right now, fantasy owners should probably be looking towards 2019 for Ballage to pay dividends.

Andre Holmes catches two passes in Week 4.

Holmes gained eight yards on his two receptions (three targets) in the loss to Green Bay. The veteran receiver is not a recommended fantasy option at the moment.

Jason Croom catches one pass in Week 4.

Croom’s lone reception went for 13 yards. His role isn’t big enough to be a recommended fantasy option at the moment.

Frank Gore scores in loss to the Patriots.

Gore rushed 11 times for 41 yards, also adding two receptions for 16 yards and a touchdown in a 38-7 blowout. The veteran clearly led the backfield in touches (13) ahead of Kenyan Drake (four) and Kalen Ballage (one), but this was a game the forget offensively for the Dolphins, and they probably need to get Drake going if they want to prove their 3-0 start wasn’t a fluke. Gore will be a decent FLEX next week against the vulnerable run defense of the Bengals.

Kelvin Benjamin catches one pass in Week 4.

Benjamin’s lone reception in the Bills’ loss went for 34 yards. Benjamin took a big hit from Packers safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix and briefly left the game to be evaluated for a possible concussion, but he was able to return. Benjamin is on pace for 28 receptions, 368 yards, and four touchdowns this season.

Brock Osweiler orchestrates only scoring drive of the day for Miami.

With the Dolphins down 38-0 in the fourth quarter against New England, Osweiler entered the game and ended up throwing a six-yard touchdown pass to Frank Gore. Miami’s backup finished 4/5 for 35 yards and the score. He will revert back to the bench for Week 5 against the Bengals.

Ryan Tannehill, Dolphins get crushed by the Patriots in Foxborough, 38-7.

Tannehill was 11/20 for 100 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception, also losing a fumble in the loss. Despite playing stout defense early on, Miami’s offense simply couldn’t get going all afternoon, and it was only a matter of time before New England got hot. The Dolphins will look to bounce back next week in a matchup between a couple 3-1 teams when they head to Cincinnati for Week 5; Tannehill won’t be a recommended streaming option in that game.
