When it rains, it pours for the Miami Dolphins.
Just when it seemed that they had found something with Darren Waller, the veteran tight end sustained yet another injury.
It has resulted in the team making three roster moves at the position.
Heading into their Week 8 game against the Atlanta Falcons, the Dolphins have placed Waller on injured reserve, activated Greg Dulcich off the practice squad, and signed Chris Myarick to the practice squad.

Waller came out of retirement to give the Dolphins a helping hand, and the early returns on his comeback were encouraging.
He had 10 receptions for 117 yards with four touchdowns, and he was one of Tua Tagovailoa’s prime targets in the red zone.
Waller has struggled with health and availability for most of his career, and he’s now out for at least the next four games because of a pectoral injury.
Whether Tagovailoa will continue to be the starting quarterback, or if Mike McDaniel will remain as head coach, by the time he’s back to full strength, remains to be seen.
The Dolphins are going through a crisis, and their Week 7 road loss to the Cleveland Browns may have been rock bottom.
Even so, the team has yet to make any big changes and will stick with the same key figures for the time being.
Waller was one of the best tight ends in the NFL in his prime, but this latest setback might end his comeback much earlier than expected.
