Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed tests positive for COVID-19

The Miami Dolphins’ bye week has not been without news. On Friday, the team announced they were moving running back Myles Gaskin to the reserve/COVID-19 list, with reports he had tested positive for the coronavirus. On Saturday, it appears Gaskin will have some company on the reserve list. According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, running back Salvon Ahmed has also tested positive for the virus. Miami has not yet announced moving him to the reserve list.

Ahmed has 54 carries for 149 yards this season. He has served primarily as the backup to Gaskin, though in recent weeks, he seems to have fallen further down the depth chart as Miami has added players to the roster.
