Dolphins' Drake returns to practice following foot injury
Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake was back at practice Monday, just 12 days after head coach Brian Flores said the rusher would be out a while with a foot issue.
Kenyan Drake was back at Dolphins practice today. Looks like he's trending upward to being back soon. Also good to see Albert Wilson in practice doing drills, moving well in back-to-back days.

Drake's return comes ahead of the final preseason game, as he works toward being cleared for the Dolphins' season opener.
The runner had been battling with sophomore Kalen Ballage for the starting job. In Drake's absence, Ballage managed just 17 yards on 12 carries for a 1.4 yards-per-carry average in Thursday's preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
