The Miami Dolphins' playoff hopes were dashed after a 20-12 loss to the Houston Texans, marking a disappointing 6-8 season. Tua Tagovailoa struggled, throwing three interceptions, while the defense managed to keep the game close despite the turnovers.
Houston's Darryl Stingley Jr. shined with two key interceptions, and a fake punt play set up a touchdown that extended the Texans' lead. The Dolphins faced injury concerns, with receiver Grant DuBose taken off the field after a hit.
Next week, Miami will face the San Francisco 49ers, who are also struggling this season.
