Ryan Tannehill Injury: How Much Time Will QB Miss?

Ryan Tannehill - SIC score 70

Officially questionable to return and was carted to locker room - by video, worry for mild right high ankle sprain early in the third quarter - same ankle as season-ending high ankle sprain last season - has bye week to rest then face the Falcons in Week 8

Last season, Tannehill suffered a right high ankle sprain in Week 7 last season and missed 2 games. He returned and played 6 games before reaggravating the injury in Week 15.

He missed the rest of the season after undergoing tight-rope surgery for added stability to his right ankle.

That added stability could help with this ankle sprain but Tannehill may still miss time out of the bye. 

Malik Willis took 4 sacks on 5 pass attempts replacing Tannehill in the fourth quarter against the Ravens.

Will Levis is also an option at quarterback after he was taken in the second round of this season's draft.
