MIAMI (AP) — Reggie Bush has been ruled out of the Miami Dolphins’ season finale Sunday against the New York Jets because of a right knee injury.
Bush, a 1,000-yard rusher for the first time in his six-year career, was hurt late in last week’s loss at New England and missed practice for the third consecutive day Friday. His absence likely means more work for rookie Daniel Thomas, although he has been nursing a knee injury, too.
In his first year with Miami, Bush showed he could handle the role of an every-down running back. He leads the team in rushing with 1,086 yards and six touchdowns. He also made 43 catches for 296 yards and one score.
