The Miami Dolphins' recent run of poor injury luck is popping up on the offensive side once more, as running back Alexander Mattison had to leave their preseason game against the Chicago Bears due to what has been deemed a head and neck injury. This comes after Mattison seemingly established himself as the backup running back behind De'Von Achane.
The Dolphins are now perusing the veteran free agent market for short-term depth additions that could help keep this backfield relatively stable. The market is quite thin, but there is someone with over 4,100 career rushing yards who could be a short-term Band-Aid for Mike McDaniel.
