"The Miami Dolphins will have to deal with one last hurdle before the end of the season.

On Friday, interim coach Todd Bowles said running back Reggie Bush will not play in Sunday's season finale against the New York Jets because of a knee injury. He suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter of Saturday's loss to the New England Patriots.

"He's not going to play," Bowles said. "The knee hasn't been responding, so we're going to sit him down. … I think he would be out earlier in the year, too. He's just not ready to play this game."

Bush missed the entire week of practice before being ruled out Friday. The Dolphins are expected to turn to rookie Daniel Thomas to fill in for Bush."
