The Miami Dolphins placed undrafted rookie running back Chris Brooks on injured reserve on Friday.
He will miss at least the next four games with a right ankle injury sustained in Sunday’s win against Carolina.
He played in the first six games for the Dolphins (5-1), who visit the Philadelphia Eagles (5-1) on Sunday night.
Brooks, 23, has rushed for 94 yards on 15 carries while playing 71 snaps on special teams and 31 on offense.
He was helped off the field and carted to the locker room in the fourth quarter of the 42-21 win over the Panthers.
