As the Miami Dolphins prepare for a crucial regular-season finale against the New York Jets, they are likely to rely on backup quarterback Tyler "Snoop" Huntley, who will step in for the injured Tua Tagovailoa. The Dolphins, currently at 8-8, face a must-win situation to keep their playoff hopes alive. Huntley showcased his potential during last week's victory over Cleveland, where his mobility and ability to rush proved vital.
The Dolphins have had a mixed record in high-pressure games this season, holding a 1-4 record against playoff contenders. Key players such as Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle must elevate their performance in this decisive match, especially given the team's struggles in previous big games.
Facing the Jets, who have proven to be a tough opponent, the Dolphins must also contend with injuries on their offensive line. With right tackle Kendall Lamm on injured reserve and left tackle Terron Armstead doubtful, the team may have to rely on inexperienced players, which could impact their performance against a formidable Jets defense.
