Dolphins tailback Jay Ajayi sidelined

Here are the most interesting Miami Dolphins stories Monday from around the Web:

  • Andrew Abramson of the Palm Beach Post writes that rookie running back Jay Ajayi missed practice time with a hamstring injury.

Morning take: Ajayi is having a slow start to training camp. Other backup tailbacks such as LaMichael James and Damien Williams have made more plays, and this injury isn’t helping the rookie.

  • Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald writes that the Dolphins still have issues on offense.

Morning take: Pass protection has been the biggest issue. Not only is the pocket not clean, the blitz pickups have been suspect.

Morning take: Matthews had his best day Sunday. He caught two deep balls from quarterback Ryan Tannehill and continues to work toward gaining a role on the team.
