Dolphins must take Jay Ajayi off injured reserve this week

Rookie running back Jay Ajayi had a disappointing camp because of injuries and inexperience, but the former Boise State standout shined in Thursday night’s exhibition game. Ajayi, who has been limited by a hamstring injury the past few weeks, gained 66 yards on nine carries and caught two passes for 37 yards. Ajayi’s night was cut short because of a chest injury he suffered in the third quarter.
