Backup RBs Thomas, Miller active for Dolphins
MIAMI (AP) Backup running backs Daniel Thomas and Lamar Miller are both active for the Miami Dolphins for Sunday's game against the New York Jets.
As expected, Jets All-Pro cornerback Darrelle Revis is back in the starting lineup after suffering a concussion in the season opener, and tight end Dustin Keller is inactive with a right hamstring injury. Both did not play against Pittsburgh last week.
When Thomas missed last week's win over Oakland with a concussion, Miller carried 10 times in his NFL debut for 65 yards, including a 15-yard score to seal the victory.
They'll back up Reggie Bush.
Backup Jets cornerback Ellis Lankster, who had been listed as questionable with a sore back, is active.
