Howard, though, struggled against the Bucs and entered the game banged up. </p> <p id="F7C9h3">Parker didn’t practice with what was reported as shoulder and hamstring injuries. Howard is dealing with shoulder and groin issues. </p> <p id="ER3jh4">The Dolphins need all the help they can get as the team hasn’t won since Week 1 in New England. Preston Williams, who caught three receptions for 60 yards last Sunday, joined the injury report on Thursday with a reported groin injury. </p> <p id="gZ5wwB">The kickoff between the Jaguars (0-5) and the Dolphins (1-4) is slated for 9:30 a.m. </p> <p id="YYfJx8"></p> </div>
