2023 Fantasy Outlook
Howard earned his fourth Pro Bowl nod in 2022 despite playing through groin injuries all season, but those accolades don't overshadow the decline in play from a cornerback meant to be one of the league's few true lockdown options. If Howard can return to All-Pro levels, or something close to it when back to full health, pairing him with defensive coordinator Vic Fangio and new teammate Jalen Ramsey should guarantee Miami one of the most dominant secondaries in the NFL. Though neither Howard nor Ramsey were statistically themselves in last season there's bounce-back potential for them in 2023. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS

Playing Sunday
Howard (knee) is active Sunday against the Jets.
ANALYSIS
Howard missed Week 17 against the Patriots, but he'll return to play Week 18. The veteran corner's return should be good news for the Miami secondary, as they work to secure a win over the Jets and a playoff spot.

One of the top defensive players in the league, and a true 'lockdown' cornerback, Howard and the Dolphins have finally agreed on a long-term extension. Heading into his age-29 season, Howard will once again line up alongside Byron Jones to form arguably the top cornerback tandem in the NFL, at least when Jones is healthy enough to come off the PUP list. Howard has 15 INTs over the last two seasons.
