Miami Dolphins In Depth

  • Dolphins fear worst as Long MRI Monday

    Publicly, coach Joe Philbin barely acknowledged the Jake Long injury, saying after the game he had no update on the matter. And players who have been told not to comment on injuries towed the line. "Can't comment on injuries," Jonathan Martin said.
