Dolphins could be without key defenders vs. Broncos, Tebow

Published: Oct 21, 2011 at 09:05 PM

DAVIE, Fla. -- Tim Tebow may face an injury-depleted Miami Dolphins secondary on Sunday.

Safety Reshad Jones is doubtful and cornerback Vontae Davis and safety Chris Clemons are questionable for the game against Tebow and the Denver Broncos. All are hampered by hamstring injuries, as is cornerback Nolan Carroll, who is probable.

Receiver Brandon Marshall (quadriceps), linebacker Cameron Wake (hamstring) and running backs Reggie Bush (groin) and Daniel Thomas (hamstring) were listed as probable Friday.

Tebow will make his first start of the season for the Broncos.
