Miami Dolphins running back Jay Ajayi missed practice on Monday for a knee injury. When it comes to the team’s presumed starter in the backfield, any mention of his knee sets of alarm bells. Ajayi was widely considered a first-round talent in the 2015 NFL Draft, but fell to the Dolphins in the fifth round due to concerns of a past knee injury and the “bone-on-bone” description of it following his recovery.
Ajayi started the day on the exercise bike on the sideline, then finished with his left knee wrapped and iced. The good news was right there, however, as it is his right knee that is the major concern from college.
