DAVIE - The Dolphins signed inside linebacker Rob Ninkovich off their practice squad Saturday and placed guard Matt McChesney on injured reserve.
McChesney, who was signed off the practice squad Nov. 7, saw his first action in last Sunday's 21-19 victory over the Seattle Seahawks when he took some snaps at left guard to relieve Justin Smiley, who has been bothered by a sore right shoulder. However, McChesney injured his knee and is now out for the season.
Ninkovich, a fifth-round choice of the Saints in 2006, played four games for the Dolphins last year and made two tackles on special teams. The 6-foot-2, 255-pound Ninkovich had eight tackles, including two sacks, in preseason, but landed on the practice squad while being converted from an outside linebacker to inside.
