In a stunning move, the Miami Dolphins have announced that Tyler Huntley will be their starting quarterback for Monday night’s game against the Tennessee Titans. This news comes just one week after Huntley joined the team, and it’s a bold move by head coach Mike McDaniel.
McDaniel revealed the decision on Saturday, stating that Huntley will be backed up by Tim Boyle. The coach praised Huntley’s ability to quickly assimilate into the locker room and grasp the team’s language. “Snoop has started multiple and many big games,” McDaniel said. “He’s done an impressive job understanding our language as his own, and the team is excited for him.”
Huntley, 26, was signed off the Baltimore Ravens’ practice squad last week. Initially, he was listed as a third emergency quarterback in Miami’s Week 3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. However, with Skylar Thompson dealing with a rib injury, the Dolphins are turning to Huntley sooner than expected.
Despite the sudden promotion, Huntley is confident in his ability to lead the team. On Friday, he told reporters that he’s working hard to pick up the Miami offense, which he likened to “riding a bike.” Huntley also mentioned that he and the coaches will work together to simplify the playbook before Monday’s game.
This move is a gamble for the Dolphins, but it could pay off if Huntley rises to the challenge. With the team looking for a spark, Huntley’s fresh perspective and experience in big games could be just what they need.
As the Dolphins prepare to face the Titans, all eyes will be on Huntley. Can he lead the team to victory in his first start? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – this is a bold move that will have everyone talking.
The stage is set for an exciting matchup on Monday night, and Huntley’s debut as the Dolphins’ starting quarterback is one you won’t want to miss. Will he prove himself as a worthy starter, or will the team regret their decision?
