Miami running back Reggie Bush is active and Arizona defensive tackle Darnell Dockett is sitting for only the second time in his career in the Dolphins-Cardinals game Sunday.

Bush had been listed as questionable after bruising his knee in the first half of last week's overtime loss to the Jets. Dockett strained a hamstring in last weekend's victory over Philadelphia. Nick Eason starts in Dockett's place.

The Cardinals are without running back LaRod Stephens-Howling with a hip flexor and tight ends Todd Heap and Jim Dray with knee injuries. Quarterback John Skelton is inactive for the third straight game with a sprained right ankle.

Miami cornerback and ex-Cardinal Richard Marshall also is active after being questionable with a sore back.
