The Dolphins’ summer of discontent is now officially a summer of misery.

For the second time in a week, they presumably lost a starter for the season to a major knee injury.

Last Thursday, it was Ryan Tannehill

This Thursday, it’s Raekwon McMillan, who injured his right knee before he even played a single NFL defensive snap. An MRI Friday confirmed what hte Dolphins feared the night before: McMillan’s ACL is torn and needs season-ending surgery.

McMillan, the second-round pick out of Ohio State, got hurt when he collided with Deon Lacey while covering a punt in the first three minutes of Miami’s preseason opener.
