The Miami Dolphins entered Sunday’s matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs without both of their starting guards with Isaiah Wynn on injured reserve and Robert Hunt battling a hamstring injury.
Then, in the middle of the contest, Robert Jones, who had been filling in on the left side for Wynn, sustained an injury and had to be helped off of the field before being carted back to the locker room.
While Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel had no updates to provide in his post-game media availability, Jones’ agent, Drew Rosenhaus, provided some news on his client.
Rosenhaus told 7News’ Josh Moser that Jones suffered a hyperextended left knee, and he would receive an MRI on Monday. This is not the same knee that caused him to miss the first four weeks of the season on injured reserve.
McDaniel is scheduled to speak with the media at some point on Monday, so we should get some more information then.
Luckily, the Dolphins have their bye in Week 10, so Jones will have time to rest and recover, but if he can’t go the following week, Miami may have to roll with Liam Eichenberg and Lester Cotton as the starting guards.
