The Miami Dolphins have released quarterback Tim Boyle just days before their Week 5 matchup against the New England Patriots. This decision allows the team to re-sign him to the practice squad, enabling him to back up Tyler Huntley while Skylar Thompson deals with a rib injury.

Boyle's release also opens a spot on the 53-man roster, potentially allowing the return of players like Odell Beckham Jr. and Cam Smith. This strategic move ensures Boyle remains available for future games once Thompson recovers.
