Why Miami Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill's knee should not be a concern

Will Ryan Tannehill's knee hold up under pressure? That's the question everyone is asking, whether they're a fan of the now veteran quarterback or not. Tannehill hasn't played an NFL game since 2016, and he re-injured his knee after running to the sidelines during training camp of 2017, leading him to miss the entire season and force them to sign a retired Jay Cutler to take over.

Naturally, there is some hesitation to trust that things will be different this time.

Last year, I wrote a story about how I believed that Tannehill's sprained/partially torn ACL and MCL would be able to heal naturally, and I provided personal testimonies of people who opted to forgo surgery in favor of letting the body do what it's designed to do and heal on its own.
