# Alain Poupart: Poupart says right tackle Austin Jackson's contract situation makes it no better than a coin flip — and probably worse — that they are back with the Dolphins next season, and suggests Miami may turn to a younger option at right tackle if their struggles continue. They also indicate edge rusher Chop Robinson will return to the lineup against Kansas City in Week 3. **Claimed:** Sep 25, 2026 **Pundit:** Alain Poupart — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/alain-poupart **Outlet:** Sports Illustrated — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/sports-illustrated **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.si.com/nfl/dolphins/onsi/under-pressure-five-dolphins-players-in-the-spotlight-in-week-3-01m3cakzda6c 2 checkable claims — 1 availability call and 1 trade and signing call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 3 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. > Jackson is a veteran starter with a contract situation that makes it at best 50-50 that he'll back next season — and that's probably a generous estimate *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Austin Jackson to move — “contract situation makes it at best 50-50 that he'll be back next season, probably a generous estimate”** - Kind: Trade and Signing Calls · About: Austin Jackson - Verdict: not settled yet - “Robinson will be back against Kansas City and told reporters Thursday he'll be wearing a Guardian cap (Week 3)” - Kind: Availability Calls · About: Chop Robinson, Miami Dolphins - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Austin Jackson — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/austin-jackson - Chop Robinson — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/chop-robinson - Miami Dolphins — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/dolphins ## What others said about the same people - Nick Brinkerhoff on Miami Dolphins: Predicts a 23-20 Dolphins win over the Jets. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/a38cb982-14c3-4bea-bf0f-f61b43e1535a (scored 100) - Mike Kadlick on Miami Dolphins: Picks the Dolphins to beat the Jets. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/23a2739f-abc5-4aea-9665-cebe61f324c5 (scored 100) - Jourdan Rodrigue on Miami Dolphins: Roderick picked the Vikings to smash the Colts, the Dolphins to win their first game of the season against the Jets, and the Saints to upset the Steelers in Paris. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/b45ad24a-5924-47e4-b85c-68b9fa738ef4 (scored 100) - Kyle "Gump" Cathcart on Miami Dolphins: Gumpy predicted the Miami Dolphins would get a big win over the Jets on Sunday. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/527bc9d5-bef1-4edd-b53c-c061e4062890 (scored 100) - Carter Bahns on Miami Dolphins: Bahns argues the Dolphins, already 0-3 and now without De'Von Achane for the season, are among the least talented rosters ever and face a brutal schedule, identifying five road/home dates (at the Jets, at the Colts, vs. the Jets, at the Packers, vs. the Chargers) as their most winnable games while doubting they can even approach their projected win total. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/8bdb56be-4c1a-45fe-8423-d581fce21da1 (scored 100) - Seth Rollins on Miami Dolphins: Guest host Seth Rollins named the Miami Dolphins their No. 1 sleeper team, saying they'll outperform expectations, finish ahead of the Jets and at least third in the AFC East, but won't win the division.

Hurwitz also projected Rhamondre Stevenson continuing as the lead back with Corey Kiner and Lan Larison taking on larger offensive roles. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/90dc59fd-f9cd-4003-8198-8469fd45d62e (not settled) - Bill Huber on Lukas Van Ness: Huber reasoned from the fact that neither Arron Mosby nor Nyjalik Kelly was elevated that edge rusher Lukas Van Ness, listed as questionable with a back injury, would be healthy enough to play in Sunday's game against the Vikings. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/4a68970a-3ae8-46c4-a395-298520a3614b (not settled) - Jose Sanchez on Keenan Allen: Sanchez argued the 49ers should have rested newly acquired receiver Keenan Allen against Dallas since Allen will go the whole 2026 season without a bye, but expects Allen to suit up and play every game starting with Sunday's game versus the Cowboys. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/fb08e172-6694-4e55-a092-2b59e28fa9a2 (not settled) - Jose Sanchez on Keenan Allen: Sanchez expects Keenan Allen to play in the 49ers' game against Dallas in a limited role on passing downs, and argues an injury is more likely than not given age and injury history, meaning Allen will end up being more of the same at receiver for San Francisco. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/ee391462-23a7-487d-ae3f-667d892af236 (not settled) - Ralph Ventre on Alec Anderson: Ventre projects Buffalo's Week 10 offensive line at the Jets to feature Dawkins, Anderson, McGovern and Torrence back in place, with Tylan Grable making a third straight start at right tackle in place of Spencer Brown, who appears headed for the inactive list. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/502dbcca-dbd3-4dd4-8651-90eb81186894 (not settled) --- Accuracy is 0-100 against what actually happened. The naive guess is what a strategy requiring no knowledge would have scored on the same call — the difference is the skill, and it is what the MissedTakes Score averages.
