DeVante Parker has foot surgery

It’s time to press the pause button on the superlatives regarding Dolphins rookie receiver DeVante Parker.

Per a team source, Parker underwent foot surgery this morning. As is always the case when NFL players go under the knife, the surgery was a success. He’s expected to be ready to go for Week One in September.

It’s unclear how or when the injury occurred. Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports that the surgery was performed as a precaution, and that the injury wouldn’t have kept Parker from playing this week, if it had happened in the regular season.
