The Dolphins have not ruled out the possibility of Ryan Tannehill needing major reconstructive surgery on his injured left knee, a procedure that would presumably sideline their starting quarterback for their offseason program -- if not the start of training camp.
Tannehill sprained both his ACL and MCL in December, but the Dolphins kept him on the active roster in hopes of him returning before their season ended.
Tannehill practiced the Friday before Miami’s playoff loss to the Steelers, but was not healthy enough to play. he did not rule out needing to go under the knife when he met with reporters last week.
