How long will Jalen Ramsey be out for?

Jalen Ramsey: Los Angeles Rams v Seattle Seahawks

As per Ian Rapoport, Ramsey is expected to remain sidelined till December. He had a full meniscus repair but will be ready to play for the Dolphins come playoff time.

This is a blow for the franchise as they recently acquired him, but the surgery enables the star cornerback to not have long-term implications. Here's what Rapoport said:

"#Dolphins star Jalen Ramsey did, in fact, undergo a full meniscus repair this morning, sources say, knocking him out until December. While it takes him off the field for the first half of 2023, it is the best long-term health option for Ramsey. It likely lengthens his career."

The Dolphins still have a pretty good roster and will hope to qualify for the playoffs so that they will be able to get Ramsey back for the most important time of the season.

Miami Dolphins are stacked with playmakers on their team

Tyreek Hill: Miami Dolphins v Baltimore Ravens

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.
