Kickers, you just can’t take them anywhere. Not even to play dodgeball.
According to The Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson, Miami Dolphins kicker Caleb Sturgis will miss the rest of team OTAs after getting injured at a team dodgerball event. Seriously.
The team decided to have a fun chemistry-building event and played dodgeball, and the kicker managed to injure the quad on his plant leg while playing. Luckily he’s expected to miss just two to three weeks and be ready in time for training camp.
Between this and what happened with the Chargers rookie to upset the team, we’re seeing that dodgeball is causing problems throughout the NFL.
