In a bit of rare good news on the NFL COVID-19 front, the Miami Dolphins look likely to get their top two running backs in time for their Week 15 game against the New York Jets.
Dolphins get two RBs Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed off covid/IR reserve and back at practice today. Both on track to play Sunday vs. Jets.

Ahmed has played 12 games and ranks second behind Gaskin in rushing attempts (54) and rushing yards (149).
The Dolphins placed their leading receiver — rookie Jaylen Waddle — on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday.
