The suspension of Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott has garnered national headlines meanwhile Dolphins headlines are being led by the announcement of an ACL tear for linebacker Raekwon McMillan and sources telling Dan Graziano that quarterback Ryan Tannehill will have season-ending ACL surgery.
A story that hasn’t received as much attention, and could mean a great deal to the Dolphins, is tackle Branden Albert being released by the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The veteran tackle would provide valuable insurance against an injury to Laremy Tunsil and might even be an upgrade to the left guard position (since Ted Larsen will be out for an extended time).
