Coach Adam Gase said safety Reshad Jones took himself out vs. Jets

Early in the Dolphins 13-6 victory over the Jets, safety Reshad Jones was replaced by rookie Minkah Fitzpatrick. Although Jones was seen limping on the sideline, there was no official report that Jones suffered an injury.

After the game, Dolphins head coach Adam Gase said Jones took himself out of the game.

“I’ll probably learn a little bit more tonight and try to figure out what’s going on,” Gase said.

Gase also said he wasn’t sure if Jones pulled himself out for injury purposes.

It was bizarre that Jones left Sunday’s game. He is one of the best players on the Dolphins defense, and the unit had struggled before their game against the Jets.

Good thing the Dolphins played against Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold as he threw four interceptions on the afternoon, including three in the fourth quarter.

It will be interesting to see if Jones is back in the Dolphins secondary next week against the Packers in Green Bay.
