Dolphins activate running back Sammy Morris after steroid suspension

Running back Sammy Morris, suspended for the season's first four games following a violation of the NFL's steroid policy, was activated Saturday by the Miami Dolphins.

Morris is expected to be on the active roster Sunday when the Dolphins visit New England.

To make room for Morris, the Dolphins waived offensive lineman Will Whitticker, who was inactive for both of his games on the 53-man roster since being signed Sept. 20.
