Dolphins QB avoided ACL tear
Ryan Tannehill only sprained the ACL and MCL in his left knee, coach Adam Gase said at his Monday morning press conference. The fear after the game Sunday was that he tore it. However, an MRI revealed that he avoided a full, catastrophic tear. He is not expected to need surgery that would keep him out for six to nine months. (Miami Herald)
Nerdy Football Analysis: This is good news for the Dolphins but the sprained ligaments will likely keep Tannehill out a few weeks. Expect Matt Moore to start Week 15 against the Jets.
