Dolphins QB Situation Takes a Hit as Jaguars Sign Key Player

The Miami Dolphins’ quarterback situation has taken a turn for the worse after losing C.J. Beathard to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Beathard was poached from the Dolphins’ practice squad, leaving the team with only two healthy quarterbacks: Tua Tagovailoa and Skylar Thompson.

This latest development adds to the Dolphins’ quarterback conundrum, which has been a recurring theme this season. Tyler Huntley, who started three games while Tagovailoa was injured, is currently on IR with a shoulder injury and has two more games to sit out.

With Huntley sidelined, the Dolphins are left with a thin backup support system for Tagovailoa. This raises concerns about the team’s ability to cope with any further injuries or absences at the quarterback position.

The Dolphins will likely sign a new quarterback to the practice squad to address this issue. Tim Boyle, who has had a rollercoaster season with the team, could be a possible candidate.

Boyle has signed and re-signed with the Dolphins multiple times, appearing in two games and completing 15 of 26 passes for 153 yards. However, his last game ended poorly, throwing a fourth-down pass out of bounds against the Colts.

Mike White, who battled Thompson in training camp, is still on the Bills’ practice squad and unlikely to join the Dolphins. This means the team will need to look elsewhere for backup support.

The Dolphins have lost two players from their practice squad in recent weeks, including DT Jonathan Harris to the Carolina Panthers. This highlights the challenges of maintaining a deep and talented roster.

As the Dolphins navigate their quarterback crisis, they will need to find a solution quickly to ensure they can compete effectively. With Tagovailoa’s injury history, it’s crucial to have a reliable backup support system in place.

The team’s QB woes are a cause for concern, especially given the importance of the position in today’s NFL. Can the Dolphins find a way to address their quarterback needs and turn their season around?

THE DOLPHINS PRACTICE SQUAD

With Beathard now gone, the Dolphins are back to having 16 of their 17 practice squad spots filled. As a reminder, the Dolphins have 17 openings because they have an exemption for Dominican offensive lineman Bayron Matos.
