Dolphins captains remove pingpong table from locker room

MIAMI -- The Miami Dolphins' pingpong tournament will have to wait.

On the heels of a two-game losing streak, team captains Tyreek Hill, Terron Armstead, Xavien Howard, Terron Armstead, Elandon Roberts and Jevon Holland decided the Dolphins' locker room needed to refocus in preparation for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings.

So they removed the centrally located table from the locker room.

Coach Mike McDaniel said he was "pretty pumped" about the decision, not necessarily because he thought the table should be removed, but because it was an example of his captains taking ownership of the team -- something he said he challenges them to do as leaders.
