Miami Dolphins cornerback Jalen Ramsey's second day of training camp reportedly came to a halt as he was carted to the locker room after suffering an injury on the field Thursday, according to NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe.
The injury occurred at the end of the practice, according to a report from USA Today's Safid Deen. Timing considered, Ramsey being carted away may not have been out of necessity.
Dolphins CB Jalen Ramsey was carted back into the locker down room after a practice injury. Trainers were attending to his left knee.
He grabbed his left knee after defending Tyreek Hill on a pass play. Trainers evaluated him for a bit on the sideline then he hobbled on cart.

During an 11-on-11 session, the 28-year-old suddenly grabbed his left knee after colliding with wide receiver Tyreek Hill, who he was guarding on a pass play, according to the reports. He was evaluated by trainers who assessed him on the sideline before he reportedly limped on to the cart.
"Everybody’s worried about him," safety Jevon Holland told reporters Thursday. "I’m not a medical professional, so I’m not gonna try to diagnose him."
The Dolphins acquired Ramsey in a major trade with the Los Angeles Rams this March, a move the six-time Pro Bowler shared on social media that he prayed for specifically a month before it happened.
He was vital in the Rams' Super Bowl LVI win, but was placed on the table for a trade after the team set a new NFL record last season for most losses by a reigning Super Bowl Champion.
Ramsey confidently addressed critiques of his most recent campaign at his introductory news conference in Miami.
“All right,” he said after being asked about the perception of him being past his prime. “Did you see me play last year? Cut on the film. You got to really watch it. You don’t become this successful without actually doing good things on the field and having the respect of your peers, media. … We gon’ see.”
The Dolphins' defense stood to benefit from his addition, and the team will hope that he can still take the field for Week 1.
Head coach Mike McDaniel is scheduled to speak to reporters before practice Friday.
