The Miami Dolphins opened the 21-day practice window for rookie safety Kyle Louis on Wednesday as he returns from a knee injury suffered in the season opener. Head coach Jeff Hafley tempered expectations for Louis, who was designated to return from injured reserve alongside limited participation from rookie receiver Caleb Douglas and defensive end Rob Beal Jr. Additionally, Hafley addressed the team's midseason kicking change, detailing the decision to release Riley Patterson and sign veteran kicker Zane Gonzalez to the practice squad following a multi-kicker tryout at practice facilities in Miami Gardens.
