Clements Probable for Miami
Standing in sideline gear on Sunday at Candlestick on Sunday was a first for cornerback Nate Clements, who had never before missed a game in his eight-year NFL career.
After having a pin pulled out from his broken thumb earlier on Wednesday, it looks like it’ll be his last as Clements is probable for Sunday.
“It was tough being out, but it wasn’t ready,” said Clements. “I’m excited to get back out there and help my team this week.”
Clements has had considerable success against the Dolphins in the past. In all but his rookie year with the Bills, he notched at least one interception in his six seasons going against the Dolphins. His highest yearly interception total at the expense of the Dolphins came in 2002 when he intercepted the ball four times in the divisional series, including a three-interception day in a Bills road game against Miami on October 20. In all, nine of Clements’ 29 career interceptions have come against the Dolphins.
“I have had some of my better games against the Dolphins, although they aren’t turning the ball over too much this year. As a defense, it’s our job to try and force them into making those kind of mistakes.”
