The Miami Dolphins have had a number of injuries at linebacker in recent weeks.
Jaelan Phillips suffered a torn Achilles, Jerome Baker is on injured reserve with an MCL and even Alexander Johnson, from their practice squad, torn his Achilles.
Now, Miami is looking to add more help on the edge, as they hosted Melvin Ingram for a workout on Tuesday.
Ingram, 34, was originally a first-round pick of the San Diego Chargers back in 2012. He spent the first nine seasons of his career with the Chargers before splitting 2021 between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs.
He most recently played for the Dolphins last season, playing in 45% of the team’s defensive snaps in 17 games. With Miami, Ingram recorded 22 total tackles (seven for a loss), 10 quarterback hits, six sacks, two fumbles recovered, one forced fumble and one pass defensed.
The former South Carolina Gamecock also earned Defensive Player of the Month honors while wearing aqua and orange.
