Miami is set to begin the regular season with top pass-rusher Bradley Chubb on the physically unable to perform list.

Chubb, who tore the ACL in his right knee in Week 17, Isaiah Wynn and Cam Goode all are on the PUP list to start the 2024 season, head coach Mike McDaniel said on Monday.

To be determined is the phrase used by McDaniel when asked if wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. would also begin on the PUP list, which requires players sit out the first four games of the season.

Chubb suffered the right knee injury with 3:10 remaining in the Ravens' 56-19 win over the Dolphins last season.

In addition to his 74 tackles and 22 quarterback hits, Chubb led the NFL with six forced fumbles in 2023.

The Dolphins acquired Chubb from the Denver Broncos on Nov. 1, 2022. He has 39.5 career sacks in 73 games (72 starts) with the Dolphins and Broncos, who selected him No. 5 overall in the 2018 draft.

Chubb, 28, suffered a torn left ACL with Denver in 2019 and missed 10 games in 2021 with an ankle injury.
