Former No. 8 overall pick and starting quarterback for the Miami Dolphins Ryan Tannehill was injured on a non-contact play Thursday morning, where his left foot planted, immediately hit the ground and had to be helped to the locker room by trainers. With that in mind, the Dolphins are reportedly considering adding Colin Kaepernick:

Tannehill was wearing a knee brace on his left leg, the same leg he suffered a sprained ACL and MCL last season.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Dolphins are "concerned" about Tannehill's injury:
