Miami Dolphins defensive tackle Zach Sieler reportedly needs biceps surgery that will end his season, according to Adam Schefter’s reporting cited by NBC Sports on Nov. 10.
Sieler played through injury against Lions
Sieler tore his biceps early in Sunday’s loss to the Detroit Lions but was able to play the rest of the game, Schefter reported.
He started Miami’s first eight games of the season, recording 24 tackles and two sacks. His reported season-ending absence removes a starter from the Dolphins’ defensive front.
Sieler’s Miami tenure and contract
Sieler joined the Dolphins during the 2019 season. During his time in Miami, he has totaled 377 tackles, 37.5 sacks, two interceptions, five forced fumbles, and six fumble recoveries.
He signed a three-year extension ahead of the 2025 season that ties him to the Dolphins through the 2029 season. NBC Sports reported that the deal includes annual salary-cap hits of more than $20 million.
