I keep seeing it written that he injured himself in warmups the other night but the truth is he quit kicking during the scrimmage and Bailey kept doing the kickoffs. I didn't actually see Sanders walk to the sideline so Bailey could have done some kicking too. All I know is Bailey was doing the kick-offs while Sanders watched from the side.
While the specific injury hasn’t been disclosed by the team or McDaniel, an ESPN report said it’s a hip ailment which will put Sanders out four or five weeks.
The update comes after it was originally anticipated Sanders would be available for the Dolphins’ regular-season opener Sept. 7 at the Indianapolis Colts, as McDaniel said following Saturday night’s exhibition at Hard Rock Stadium.
“I think he’s going to have a little bit longer,” McDaniel said Monday. “I don’t anticipate him being available at the beginning of the season, but I don’t see a season-ender.”https://www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/08/25/dolphins-kicker-jason-sanders-to-miss-time-with-hip-injury/Jaylon Wright looks like he will miss 1 and maybe more, depending on surgery. This means Ollie Gordon II will likely see significant time.

iami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright will also miss Week 1 of the regular season when Miami plays the Colts. In the coming days, it will be determined if Wright will need surgery; if he does, then he will be out longer as well.https://www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/08/25/dolphins-kicker-jason-sanders-to-miss-time-with-hip-injury/
