Miami Dolphins running back Reggie Bush underwent tests for his injured knee and indicated Monday the problem was not serious.

"Received some great news today! Praise the Lord!" Bush wrote on Twitter.

Bush was hurt late in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the New York Jets and did not return. He was riding an exercise bike during the second half of Miami's 23-20 overtime loss and tried to convince trainers to let him play.

According to the Sun-Sentinel, an MRI exam revealed no structural damage. He might be available for next week's game at Arizona.

Bush entered Week 3 of the season second in the NFL with 241 rushing yards. He had 61 on 10 carries before exiting Sunday's contest.
