How long will Jalen Ramsey be out for?
As per Tom Pelissero, Ramsey will undergo knee surgery to repair his meniscus injury. He will be sidelined for 6-8 weeks, which is bearable for the Miami Dolphins, who are Super Bowl contenders this upcoming season.
Here’s what Pelissero reported:
“#Dolphins star CB Jalen Ramsey is expected to miss at least six to eight weeks because of a meniscus injury that will require surgery, per source. Doctors will determine whether to remove the meniscus or repair it, which would be a much longer recovery.”
There is a possibility that Jalen Ramsey might be available to play in Week 1 for the Dolphins. But given how important he is for their team, the franchise will take extra care and will not rush him back from injury.
Another update has been given on Ramsey’s status, and as per Ian Rapoport, the star cornerback could be sidelined till Decmeber. Here’s what he said:
“More info and clarity on #Dolphins star CB Jalen Ramsey: Sources say while no firm determination will be made until surgery, the likely outcome is a full meniscus repair, bringing Ramsey back in December if all goes well. The best and healthiest option.”

After trading for Ramsey, the Dolphins made their intentions clear that they are going all in for the Super Bowl. Last season they looked like the best team in the NFL before Tua Tagovailoa got hurt.
Now that their quarterback is healthy, the Dolphins will hope that they can challenge the best teams. Their squad is loaded with impact players like Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Tua Tagovailoa, Ramsey, Xavien Howard, Bradley Chubb, etc. which is why they are capable of defeating any team on any given day.
The major concern for them is staying healthy, and with Ramsey already hurt, it will be intriguing to see if the Dolphins’ talents can play without getting injured. They have a good chance of winning the Super Bowl if they accomplish this.
