The Miami Dolphins will open their 2023 campaign against the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium on Sept. 10, which is now 19 days away. Until the opening kickoff of the season, we’ll be counting down each day by remembering the players who have worn each specific jersey number.
The lingering durability questions surrounding Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa make it critical that the team has a competent backup quarterback. In the offseason, the Dolphins gave $4.5 million guaranteed to veteran Mike White, making him the presumed No.
Mike McDaniel has consistently talked about wanting to see how his players handle themselves when they achieve some success, and when adversity arrives.
Backup quarterback Skylar Thompson threw for 157 yards and three touchdowns to lead the visiting Miami Dolphins to a 28-3 victory over the Houston Texans on Saturday.

"Next man up." During the 2023 season, some NFL head coaches will need to heed that motto at quarterback, the most important position in the sport. If a team doesn't have an adequate backup, a season can implode. On a scale of one to five, with one being the highest level of panic, here's where AFC East teams stand at backup QB.
We've reached the upper-third of Super Bowl favorites with expectations high in South Beach for 2023. Yardbarker's Griffin Carroll is here with his pick for the Fins.

Heading into Wild Card Weekend, the Miami Dolphins have announced a bit of a surprise at quarterback.

The Dolphins have plummeted from 8-3 to 8-8 and are again navigating a Tua Tagovailoa concussion. The team still has a manageable path to the playoffs — a win over the Jets and a Patriots loss to the Bills — but it will probably have to complete part one of that scenario without its starting quarterback.
The Dolphins are now 8-8 on the season after dropping their fifth consecutive game to the Patriots on New Year’s Day.

The Miami Dolphins used their final pick in the 2022 NFL draft to select Kansas State quarterback Skylar Thompson in the seventh round. Thompson, 24, joins a quarterback room with Tua Tagovailoa, Teddy Bridgewater and Chris Streveler, so he’ll have to fight to earn a spot on the roster/practice squad.
This is not a good year to need a quarterback. The 2022 NFL Draft has a few prospects who definitely intrigue as players, but it lacks any surefire standouts or franchise saviors.
Thompson suffered the setback when he was hit during Kansas State's 31-21 win over Texas Tech on Oct. 3. He didn't play in Saturday's 21-14 win over TCU that propelled the Wildcats to 3-1 overall.
