| DAVIE – Dolphins wide receiver Ted Ginn participated in his first Dolphins minicamp practice on Friday, but the injury news wasn't as good for backup tackle Joe Toledo. Dolphins coach Cam Cameron said Toledo will require surgery to repair a broken bone in his foot. Cameron didn't provide a detailed account of the injury or a timetable for Toledo's expected return. Cameron said Ginn is "90-plus" percent recovered from a sprained foot that he initially suffered in January while playing at Ohio State. Ginn, who was the No. 9 overall selection in April's draft, worked as the Dolphins' first-team punt returner during this morning's practice and should also see action as the first-team kickoff returner later in the minicamp. A 2006 fourth-round pick, Toledo spent all of last season on injured reserve with a knee injury but then hurt his foot in December when slipping while stepping out of a hot tub. Toledo was considered a potential starter at guard last season but was shifted earlier this offseason to tackle, which is where he played as a senior at the University of Washington. Backup tackle Anthony Alabi also missed practice while recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery he had in April. Cameron said Alabi is expected to be recovered for the start of training camp in late July. |
