Miami Dolphins cornerback Jalen Ramsey was carted off the practice field at training camp on Thursday after a play where he was covering Tyreek Hill.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter is reporting that it is not an ACL injury, but it is a knee issue that will require surgery.

Schefter goes on to say that Ramsey is expected to miss the start of the regular season as he recuperates from the injury and surgery.
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero is reporting that it is a meniscus issue.
#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. pic.twitter.com/UunjoutZrg

Ramsey Shares Twitter Message
Ramsey tweeted a very positive message that has to be somewhat consoling to Dolphins fans.
“I’ll be back on that field stronger than ever… in due time! This SO minor for God’s child! I trust fully & know He got me! Im forever grateful to worship His name! I know my brothers gone hold it down until I’m back tho! Appreciate the love & support! Time to get right!”

The beginning of NFL training camp is always a concerning time for player injuries.
Ramsey and Bengals QB Joe Burrow both had to be carted off the practice field today.
Joe Burrow carted off today with a strained calf.
Jalen Ramsey carted off today with a knee injury that will require surgery and sideline him for start of season.
