Myles Gaskin worked his way up the depth chart and earned the Miami Dolphins' starting tailback job by outperforming the veterans on the roster this season.
But Matt Breida, Jordan Howard and Patrick Laird will get a second chance to make an impact on the Dolphins' running game in the coming games since a knee injury could sideline Gaskin for a couple of weeks.
Gaskin, who leads the Dolphins with 387 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns on the 100 carries he handled the past seven games, sprained the medial collateral ligament in one of his knees during Miami’s 28-17 win over the Los Angeles Rams last Sunday.
