Dolphins lose pass-rusher Chubb to torn ACL

Miami Dolphins player Bradley Chubb sustained a torn ACL in his right knee in yesterday’s 56-19 defeat against the Baltimore Ravens, ending his campaign.

Bradley went down with a noncontact problem in the final minutes of the 4^th quarter Sunday and was carted back to the locker room. The pass-rusher was quickly ruled out for the remainder of the match.

Dolphins’ standout OLB Bradley Chubb did in fact tear his ACL, per source. Chubb was hurt with three minutes left in Sunday’s game, when Miami trailed by 30.

The fact that Chubb and Miami’s defensive starters were on the field in a blowout defeat drew instant criticism from the franchise supporters. Manager Mike McDaniel, in his 2^nd season at the helm, shared that he regretted keeping his starters in with the match when his organization had no chance to triumph.

“I mean, if I ever thought about that, I would not have put him back on the field if I had known that he was going to get injured. … It doesn’t look like a very thoughtful decision,” the Dolphins boss admitted.
