In eight games this season, Gaskin has 121 carries for 477 yards and two touchdowns with 32 receptions for 249 yards. He has served as the team's second option at running back behind Breida.

With Gaskin now sidelined, the Dolphins will have to rely on DeAndre Washington, Elijah McGuire and Patrick Laird against the Chiefs.
