The Miami Dolphins faced a setback when rookie linebacker Trey Moore sustained a serious ankle injury two plays into their preseason game against the New York Giants. Moore's injury led to his immediate removal from the field, and head coach Jeff Hafley confirmed he will require surgery. Though hopeful for a return this season, the Dolphins currently cannot place him on injured reserve until the regular season begins, affecting their roster of players. Moore, selected in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL draft, was expected to contribute significantly in his rookie year.
