Former Miami Hurricanes standout plays big role in ending Dolphins’ playoff hopes

The last time the Miami Dolphins played the Jacksonville Jaguars, defensive lineman Calais Campbell ended Ryan Tannehill’s 2016 season.

Two years later, Campbell had a heavy hand in ending the Dolphins’ 2018 playoff hopes. The former Miami Hurricanes standout recorded a sack, three quarterback hits and forced and recovered a fumble to help the Jaguars defeat the Dolphins 17-7 at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday.

The biggest of his plays came late in the fourth quarter. With the Jaguars holding onto a 10-7 lead and the Dolphins trying to put together a game-tying or game-winning drive, Campbell rushed through the trenches on first and 15 and grabbed hold of Tannehill as he attempted to throw a pass to running back Kalen Ballage.
