Xavien Howard GTD

Xavien Howard (knee) out in Week 16 for Miami

Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard will not play on Sunday in the team's Week 16 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

What It Means:

Howard practiced on a limited basis all week, but he isn't yet ready to return to game action. That's good news for Donte Moncrief and the rest of the Jaguars receivers, who will not have to face one of the best corners in the league.

In 12 games this season, Howard has 30 tackles, 12 passes defended and seven interceptions.
