Dolphins RB Jay Ajayi says he's 'extremely healthy' after knee concerns dropped his draft stock

Former Boise State running back Jay Ajayi was projected to be a second-round pick. A reported 'bone on bone' issue in his right knee forced him all the way down to the fifth round, where the Dolphins selected him with 149th-overall pick. Ajayi insists the knee is not an issue and is now a point of motivation rather than a hindrance. 'I did think I was going to go earlier, so I was definitely disappointed. At the same time, I can only control what I can control. I know right now, at this very moment, that I'm extremely healthy and ready to go to camp and ready to contribute right away,' Ajayi said.
