MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — The Miami Dolphins activated starting linebacker Jerome Baker from injured reserve on Saturday and placed edge rusher Bradley Chubb on season-ending injured reserve with a torn ACL. Baker missed the past four games because of a knee injury suffered against Washington on Dec. 3. His activation clears the way for him to return for Sunday night's matchup against Buffalo. Chubb suffered the season-ending knee injury in the final minutes of a loss at Baltimore in Week 17. Miami also elevated cornerback Ethan Bonner and linebacker Melvin Ingram to the active roster. Veteran cornerback Xavien Howard has already been ruled out.
