Reggie Bush returns, says he’ll play Sunday, but Philbin isn’t sure yet

Sep. 27 News and Notes 2 comments ---Bill

The Miami Dolphins are heading to Arizona on Friday, a day early, for their matchup with the Cardinals.  From the sounds of things, the Dolphins might have some help that they weren’t counting on earlier in the week.  Reggie Bush returned to Dolphins practice on Thursday, a day after practicing only on a limited basis.  Omar Kelly of the Sun Sentinel tweeted the following:

I now fully expect Dolphins RB Reggie Bush to play on Sunday. Why? No training table time. Just being cautious.

Omar also said earlier that Reggie Bush was running really well in practice, to the point where you’d never know he had injured his knee on Sunday.  Add to Omar’s comments, what Reggie Bush had to say for himself today:

“That’s something you’ve got to ask Coach about because I’ll tell you right now I’m playing Sunday, but I’m sure that’s why I’m not the head coach,” (cont’d on page 2, click below)

    I just slipped outside and the full weight of my body fell on my right knee… I still feel mild pain but the movement itself isn’t impaired at all but… I don’t have the equipment or trainers which Bush has access to. On the surface, I can move just fine, but I don’t make cuts against the grain while wearing cleats on a grassy surface; Point being, I would feel more comfortable winning or losing the game in Arizona on Sunday than to risk losing Bush for the season or have him forever develope knee problems.

      Jules – I hope your knee is okay! I agree, if Reggie isn’t 100%, he shouldn’t play. Why risk an injury? However, if he is healthy and running as well as Omar said yesterday, I think he should play.
