Miami Dolphins defensive end Cameron Wake has a mild MCL sprain, according to a team source, but hasn't been ruled out for next Monday's game against New Orleans.

Wake, Miami's Pro Bowl pass-rushing ace, was on the sideline for much of the Dolphins' 27-23 win on Sunday because of a knee injury.

Wake has 2.5 sacks on the season and leads a defense which has helped the Dolphins to a 3-0 start.
