Dolphins QB Quinn Ewers played a clean game in Sunday's win over Tampa Bay, throwing for 172 yards and 2 TDs. The bulk of his production came on a 63-yard deep ball to UDFA rookie WR Theo Wease Jr.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the Miami Dolphins have benched QB Tua Tagovailoa and will start seventh-round rookie Quinn Ewers against the Bengals. The news doesn't come as a shock, following Miami's Monday night loss to Pittsburgh that officially eliminated the Dolphins from playoff contention. HC Mike McDaniel opened the door for the move after the game, saying the QB play wasn't good enough and "everything is on the table."

Dolphins RB De’Von Achane tallied 98 total yards in Sunday’s blowout loss to Cleveland. Achane’s now hit that number in five of seven games this season.

The Miami Dolphins selected Texas QB Quinn Ewers with the 231st pick of the 2025 NFL Draft. Ewers boasted one of the highest recruiting grades ever as a five-star QB. He committed to Ohio State for pure NIL reasons before transferring back home to Texas a year later. A left clavicle sprain hindered his 2022 season, but he turned in a strong 2023. Ewers threw for 3,479 yards, 22 TDs, and six INTs on a 69.0% completion rate and 8.8 yards per attempt. He ranked 12th among 125 qualifying QBs in Pro Football Focus passing grade. Ewers took a step back in 2024, though, regressing in passing yards per game, completion rate (65.8%), yards per attempt (7.8), and PFF grade (69th). Ewers highs are some of the highest in this QB class, but he makes too many boneheaded decisions. And he won’t add much value with his legs. Ewers averaged just 6.4 rushing yards per game last year and 9.6 for his career. His lengthy injury history is also worth noting: sports-hernia surgery (2020), sprained left clavicle (2022), right AC joint sprain (2023), high-ankle sprain (2024), and strained oblique (2024). Ewers’ arm talent offers plenty of upside, but he has not shown that he can be a full-time NFL starter without development.
