Miami Dolphins defensive end Cameron Wake's left knee injury isn't serious, but it's uncertain whether he'll be available for next Monday's game at New Orleans.

Defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle said Monday that the Dolphins will see how Wake responds to treatment and will likely decide at the end of this week whether he can play against the Saints.

Wake was hurt in the first quarter of Sunday's 27-23 victory over Atlanta. He spent the rest of the game riding a stationary bike or restlessly pacing the sideline.

The two-time Pro Bowl end has never missed a game because of injury in his five NFL seasons. He leads the Dolphins with 2 1/2 sacks and had a career-high 15 last year.
