Miami Dolphins WR DeVante Parker (hamstring) has had a hard time staying healthy early in his NFL career. He tweaked his left hamstring in practice Monday, Aug. 29, and he missed a lot of time due to a foot injury in his rookie season of 2015. Head coach Adam Gase appeared to challenge Parker Tuesday, Aug. 30, to do what it takes to stay out of the trainer’s room. ‘We’re going to keep strengthening him up,’ Gase said. ‘I feel like I’ve been through this with (Broncos WR Demaryius Thomas) in Denver. Felt like he was always hurt. One thing after the other.’
