DT Jeremiah Ratliff made his second start after a concussion had
sidelined him two games, and produced a career-high 3.5 sacks
against Miami.
LB D.J. Williams returned to the field following a neck injury that
had caused him to miss a game and then practice time last week.
Williams was in on two tackles.
S Chris Conte missed Sunday's game with a shoulder injury suffered
against Atlanta Oct. 12. He is day to day. Rookie Brock Vereen
played in his place and made five tackles.
LB Shea McClellin saw his first game action since Week 2 due to a
hand injury. He was in on two tackles and deflected a pass.
McClellin slipped and fell in coverage, resulting in Miami's first
touchdown. Later, his pass deflection occurred in the back of the
end zone when LB Kahseem Greene played weak-side linebacker for
injured Lance Briggs, but came out of the game at times in favor of
Christian Jones. Trestman said he was merely trying to get Jones
some reps.

LB Jonathan Bostic missed the Miami game due to a back injury and
his status is day to day heading into preparations for the New
England game. His place in the nickel was filled by Darryl Sharpton,
who had six tackles and a quarterback hit.
