(AP) — to practice Wednesday for the Miami Dolphins after missing two games because of a left knee injury.Howard said he’s hopeful but uncertain whether he’ll be able to play Sunday against Jacksonville.“I feel great,” he said. “Just trying to see at the end of the week how it’s going to go.”The third-year cornerback was chosen for the Pro Bowl for the first time Tuesday, to the delight of his friends and family.“Man, I got so many calls and text messages it has been crazy,” he said.Coach Adam Gase said he was happy for Howard Drew Lock Jersey , but disappointed left tackle Laremy Tunsil didn’t make the Pro Bowl.“I think he’s the best tackle in football,” Gase said.While the Dolphins got Howard back on the practice field, running back Frank Gore went on injured reserve because of a season-ending sprained foot. Defensive tackle Kendrick Norton was signed to take Gore’s roster spot.Gore, hurt in Sunday’s loss at Minnesota, leads the Dolphins with 722 yards rushing. He’s the NFL’s fourth all-time leading rusher with 14 http://www.broncosauthorizedshops.com/authentic-dre_mont-jones-jersey ,478 yards.The 35-year-old has played in 126 consecutive games and made 122 starts in a row, and both streaks are the longest by an NFL offensive skill player. Utah defensive lineman Lowell Lotulelei says Michigan defensive lineman Maurice Hurst Jr. told him Saturday that he had been diagnosed with the same heart condition as Lotulelei’s older brother, Star.
The comments came shortly after ESPN.com first reported Hurst will not be allowed to participate in drills.
League spokesman Michael Signora confirmed that players can be held out based on certain diagnoses but that he believed Hurst was still in town.
Jeff Foster, president of National Football Scouting, declined to confirm details of what happened because of privacy concerns. But he did tell The Associated Press that six to eight players have been withheld from drills this year for reasons players were not aware of before their arrival.
Foster said that number has stayed relatively consistent over the past 13 years.
Hurst had been rising steadily on mock draft boards.
The 6-foot-2 T.J. Hockenson Jersey , 280-pound defensive tackle had 59 tackles and 5 1/2 sacks last season. He also had 13 tackles for loss and has been considered one component of a deep class of defensive tackles in this year’s draft.
Hurst’s father played seven seasons with the New England Patriots as a cornerback.
Word leaked just after defensive linemen and linebackers started talking to reporters at the NFL’s annual scouting combine in Indianapolis.
”I just found out in the NFLPA meeting that we just had. He just said, `Star was your brother?’ And I said yeah. He’s like, `Man, I just got the same thing that he did,”’ Lowell Lotulelei told reporters. ”Obviously I didn’t go through it Zach Brown Jersey , so I don’t really know what he’s feeling like. But I kind of understand the disappointment just because my brother trained just like he trained and you’re expecting one thing and getting another. I feel for him. It sucks. But I think he’ll be fine just like my brother was.”
Five years ago, Star Lotulelei arrived at the combine as the expected first pick in that year’s draft.
Things changed dramatically after doctors identified an ”abnormal” test on his heart.
Lotulelei then sought additional opinions, eventually was cleared to exercise and was taken by Carolina with the 14th overall selection in the 2013 draft. He has missed only four games in five NFL seasons.
