# Alain Poupart: Poupart says right tackle Austin Jackson's contract situation makes it no better than a coin flip — and probably worse — that he is back with the Dolphins next season, and suggests Miami may turn to a younger option at right tackle if his struggles continue. He also indicates 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 bet.
