From the Herald.......
Dolphins tight end Alonzo Mayes hyperextended his right knee Saturday night against Houston, suffering an injury that will complicate how quickly the team will be able to release him, if at all.
Eleven other players were released Sunday.
According to two sources, Mayes was told early Sunday that he was likely to be released by Tuesday, when NFL teams must get down to the 65-man roster limit. However, Mayes had an MRI exam on the knee that revealed the damage.
Mayes, who lost the battle for a starting job to rookie Randy McMichael, can be given an injury settlement or be put on injured reserve, although that will depend on the severity of the injury.

Now that we FINALLY want to rid ourselves of him.....we can't. At least not right away. God, what a waste of time, money, and draft picks.
