Miami Dolphins linebacker Lawrence Timmons was reinstated by the team Tuesday after going AWOL prior to a Week 2 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers, the team announced.
Timmons will play Week 4 against the New Orleans Saints.
Timmons failed to return to the team hotel before curfew the night before the game, and was found at Los Angeles International Airport. The Dolphins reportedly filed a missing persons report after Timmons was found absent.
The veteran met with team doctors after the incident but was held out of Sunday's game against the New York Jets.
Dolphins head coach Adam Gase previously said Timmons could be forgiven if the right steps were taken.
