Dolphins LT Terron Armstead said that his strained pectoral is feeling better and is glad to be back at practice this week.
“I feel better than I did last week,” Armstead said. “We keep chipping way. Love to be back out there with the guys.”
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said that Armstead is a major factor in their offense.
“I think bottom line is he’s a big part of our team,” McDaniel said. “That is one of the reasons we are where we’re at when he’s playing.”
As for when Armstead suffered his injury in Week 12 against the Texans, the offensive tackle said he immediately knew that he injured his pectoral.
“Guy was rushing off the edge,” Armstead said. “Outside arm kind of went across his body and going to the ground I just felt the rip. So I kind of knew immediately what I was dealing with. No point to go into the blue tent to waste time. I kind of self-diagnosed before the MRI.”
