Miami Dolphins LB Jelani Jenkins improving from knee injury

DAVIE–It looks like the Dolphins will get linebacker Jelani Jenkins back in the rotation for Sunday’s playoff game at Pittsburgh.

Jenkins, who has battled a variety of injuries this season, practiced today after being inactive the past two games due to knee trouble. He felt good in the full-pads practice this afternoon and was optimistic about playing.

“It was fun for me since I haven’t played in a while,” he said. “I got to get some thumping in and get used to hitting again and running again.”

Jenkins has been out seven games total this season.
