The Miami Dolphins' offensive line wasn't very good through the first half of the season, but things can always get worse.
After the well-documented Richie Incognito-Jonathan Martin spectacle removed two starters from the offensive line, Miami's front took another hit earlier this week, as reserve lineman Will Yeatman was lost for the season with a torn ACL.
As if that wasn't enough, center Mike Pouncey, the anchor of the Dolphins' offensive line, popped up on the injury report late with an illness. Pouncey, joins receiver Mike Wallace and cornerback Dimitri Patterson on the "questionable" list.
The absence of Pouncey and/or Wallace, who is battling a hamstring ailment, would be a significant blow to a team that is essentially on life support in terms of the playoff race.
The Chargers, who are also clinging to their playoff-clinching lives, also have their starting center listed as questionable, as Nick Harwick is nursing a neck injury and was unable to practice this week.
Here's the full slate of injuries for both teams:
DOLPHINS
