### The Dolphins say they have a one-week exemption on Dion Jordan before they are required to add him to the 53-man roster. So the Dolphins could keep him off the 53 all week if they decide not to play him Sunday.
### Brent Grimes, who suffered a thigh injury Sunday, returned to practice today. Jimmy Wilson (hamstring) remains out.

### Give credit to safety Michael Thomas, who did good work in an expanded role Sunday. Only one pass was thrown in his coverage area and it was incomplete.
