Patterson, Brenner to start as Fins and Chargers near kickoff; inactives

The good news? CB Dimitri Patterson is active and will start today. Patterson leads the team with 4 INT's, but has missed multiple games this year with a groin injury.

The bad news? That make shift offensive line is the textbook definition of makeshift today.

Practice squad call up Sam Brenner will start today. Nate Garner will play center for the first time in 4 years. 

Rookie Dallas Thomas and former first round pick Danny Watkins are active but not starting.

Here are the other inactives:

C Mike Pouncey, DT Isaako Aaitui, RB Mike Gillisslee, QB Pat Devlin, OL David Arkin, CB Will Davis, OT Jonathan Martin.

The Miami offensive line will look like this:

LT - McKinnie; LG - Brenner; C - Garner; RG - Jerry; RT - Clabo

Fins in all white.

"Fireland" banner's ready to go.

Play ball!
