Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle exited Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys early after sustaining a leg injury during the third quarter. He did not return, although the Dolphins were able to edge out a crucial victory in his absence.
On Monday, coach Mike McDaniel provided an update on Waddle’s injury, indicating that the 25-year-old had suffered a high ankle sprain, per ESPN’s Marcel Louis-Jacques.
McDaniel admitted that high ankle injuries like the one Waddle sustained “can be tricky,” and added the wide receiver would receive further testing in order to determine the severity of the injury.
