NFL has opened an investigation into how Miami reported Tannehill shoulder injury


Recommended Posts

Regarding prominent players, particularly starting quarterbacks, the NFL routinely investigates injury reporting. The NFL will gather details of how Tannehill went from full practice participant last Wednesday and Thursday to limited participant/questionable on Friday to out on Sunday, and see whether Miami adhered to the league policy.

DAVIE, Fla. -- Quarterback Ryan Tannehill has been ruled out Sunday versus the Detroit Lions, and the NFL has opened an investigation into how the Miami Dolphins reported his shoulder injury, a source confirmed to ESPN.

Brock Osweiler, who threw for a career-high 380 yards in a 31-28 overtime victory over the Bears, will start for the second consecutive week. Dolphins coach Adam Gase said he's not sure whether Tannehill will be able to play at Houston on Oct. 25.

"Anything that has to do with pocket movement, footwork, things like that, he can do everything," Gase said Wednesday. "He just can't throw."

 

 

Wait one freaking minute 

 

Tom Brady is on an injury report more often than not and they target Miami?
