Source: Dolphins’ Emmanuel Ogbah (torn triceps) out for season
Ogbah left Sunday’s 39-17 win over the Cleveland Browns with what was described as an elbow injury and did not return.
He was in the first year of the four-year, $65 million extension that he signed this offseason and finishes the season with one sack in nine games. Ogbah joins Nik Needham and Brandon Jones as the Dolphins’ third defensive starter this year to suffer a season-ending injury.
The Dolphins first signed Ogbah in 2020, and he led the team in sacks in both the 2020 and 2021 seasons. His injury leaves Miami down an edge rusher, but the team recently traded for outside linebacker Bradley Chubb.
In Ogbah’s absence, Chubb, Jaelan Phillips, Melvin Ingram and Andrew Van Ginkel will likely see an increase in snaps.
