Shaheen (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

After missing the Dolphins' Week 1 win over the Patriots while he was on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Shaheen rejoined the team for practice Wednesday, but his reps were capped on account of the knee injury. Shaheen seemingly erased any concern about his health by participating fully in Thursday's session, but he's not guaranteed to have a sizable role Week 2 against the Bills, given the existing competition at tight end. Mike Gesicki remains the Dolphins' top pass-catching threat at tight end, while Durham Smythe's combination of blocking and receiving skills allowed him to lead the position group in snap share (70 percent) in the opener.

Shaheen was limited at practice Wednesday due to a knee injury, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Though he was lifted from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Shaheen is evidently dealing with an injury ahead of Sunday's game against the Bills. Once available, Shaheen will bolster a Miami tight end corps that also features Mike Gesicki and Durham Smythe.

The Dolphins activated Shaheen (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Shaheen is slated to practice Wednesday and should be available for Sunday's game against the Bills. It's possible that he could see some looks in two-tight end sets this weekend, but with Mike Gesicki and Durham Smythe ahead of him on the depth chart, Shaheen likely won't be in line for steady volume in the passing game.

Shaheen has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

EDGE Analysis

Per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, Shaheen will be out at least 10 days under NFL protocols and thus won't be available for the Dolphins' regular-season opener. Mike Gesicki, Durham Smythe, Hunter Long and Cethan Carter are in line to handle the team's Week 1 tight end duties.

Shaheen has missed the last couple of practices with a hamstring and knee issue and will remain out for the preseason finale, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Shaheen's status for the regular season is uncertain at this point. The good news for the Dolphins is that the MRI on his knee was negative, so it doesn't look like the injury is season-ending. Shaheen is in place for a backup role in Miami's revamped offense. He caught 12 passes for a career-high 150 yards and three scores last season.

Shaheen (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Shaheen landed on the COVID list over the weekend as an apparent close contact, and he's since cleared the health and safety protocols. The 26-year-old will continue to compete for a roster spot now that he can practice.

Shaheen was placed on the COVID-19 list Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Shaheen is an apparent close contact after co-offensive coordinator and tight ends coach George Godsey tested positive for the virus, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. If the tight end continues to test negative for COVID-19, he could return after a relatively brief absence. However, any time away from the team could impact his ability to secure a spot on the 53-man roster in camp.

Shaheen may need a strong showing in training camp to secure a roster spot following the selection of third-round Hunter Long in the 2021 NFL Draft, Safid Deen of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Shaheen was already likely looking at a depth role behind Mike Gesicki and Durham Smythe, and Long is essentially guaranteed to make the roster as a third-round pick. Shaheen appears to be No. 4 on the depth chart if everyone stays healthy, and he'll be in competition in camp with Cethan Carter, who inked a three-year deal in March.

Shaheen caught one of three targets for 22 yards during Week 17's 56-26 loss to the Bills.

EDGE Analysis

Shaheen wrapped his 2020 campaign with three straight one-catch games. In his inaugural season in Miami, the former Chicago tight end appeared in 16 contests, hauling in 12 of 22 targets for 150 yards and three touchdowns. It was the first full 16-game season of Shaheen's career. The 26-year-old's reliable play led to the Dolphins rewarding him with a two-year contract extension worth up to $7.85 million back in October, setting him up to return in a key depth role behind Mike Gesicki come 2021.

Shaheen secured his only target for three yards during Saturday's 26-25 win over the Raiders.

EDGE Analysis

Shaheen found himself back in a reserve role with the return of Mike Gesicki, and he's now logged two straight games with just one catch. Though the Dolphins' scheme often looks to tight ends in the red zone, Shaheen's lack of consistency will keep him off the fantasy radar Week 17 in Buffalo.
