During the second quarter of the Dolphins game against the Patriots on Sunday, quarterback Ryan Tannehill left the game because of an ankle injury. Although Tannehill would only miss two snaps because of the halftime period, the injury clearly bothered him the rest of the game.

On Monday during his press conference, Dolphins quarterback Adam Gase gave a brief update on Tannehill’s status.

“He’s sore,” Gase said. “He’s walking around, so that’s good.”

So it appears despite some soreness, Tannehill should be able to start against the Vikings this Sunday.

As for Tannehill’s play on the field, he has been solid since he returned from the shoulder injury that kept him out for five games. He has completed 69.1 percent of his passes for 606 yards, eight touchdowns against only one interception. Tannehill also has a quarterback rating of 129.9 during those contest.

“He’s played the way we needed him to play these last few games,” Gase said. “He’s protecting the football, done a good job finding open guys and a good job of running the offense.”
