M IAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Jack Jones stepped to a covered lectern Monday at the Baptist Health Training Complex, wearing a practice jersey without a nameplate, minutes after his second practice with the Miami Dolphins.

The offense has been able to count on left tackle Patrick Paul eight practices into the new campaign. The Dolphins have run one-on-one periods each of the three days since the pads came on with Paul hitting for a high batting average in those periods. The 6-7, 327-pound tackle was also creating displacement in the run game.
