Miami Dolphins: Kenyan Drake signs, gets injured on same day

Running back Kenyan Drake signed with the Miami Dolphins, who now have all eight of their NFL Draft picks under contract. Terms were not disclosed.

Drake was selected in the third round after playing in 42 career games for Alabama, where he rushed for 1,495 yards and 18 touchdowns on 233 carries while adding 570 yards and four scores on 46 receptions.

During his second day at minicamp, Drake was spotted limping off of the field during a special teams drill. Drake clinched his right hamstring before heading to the locker room and halting his practice day, according to the South Florida Sun Sentinel.

Drake is expected to have an immediate impact on the Dolphins' backfield with Lamar Miller signing a four-year, $26 million deal with the Houston Texans after rushing for 1,971 yards and 16 touchdowns the past two seasons. Jay Ajayi enters training camp as the expected starter, but the much faster Drake is seen as an ideal change-of-pace complement.

The Dolphins also have veteran Damien Williams in the mix.
