Dolphins RB Brown will stay on crutches for quite a few days

The Miami Dolphins did not become the second team being beaten by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but they won Sunday’s game at the cost of running back Ronnie Brown, who injured his right ankle in the third quarter of Sunday’s game.

Brown watched the end of Dolphins’ 25-23 win in the locker room after limping off the field with assistance from teammates. He might feel fortunate that his lost fumble before leaving field did not result in significant drop. But not being part of the winning team was still something frustrating.

“I kind of rolled my foot to the inside,” he said. “It’s tough coming out of the game. Fortunately we were able to get a W. I just don’t like being on the sidelines.”

He was replaced by Ricky Williams who ran for a season-high 102 yards for the remaining of the game. And Brown ran for 82 yards and a touchdown before leaving field still wearing his Dolphins jersey. The Dolphins’ leading rusher this season will have some tests to determine how long he will have to stay on crutches.
