MIAMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins' decision-making regarding their backup quarterback remains under scrutiny following Tua Tagovailoa's concussion in the second game of the season. Coach Mike McDaniel and GM Chris Grier are facing criticism for their inability to adequately prepare for this situation, leading to a lack of confidence in their ability to resolve the backup quarterback dilemma in 2025.

Past attempts to find a suitable backup have failed, including a competition between Skylar Thompson and Mike White, neither of whom proved capable. As McDaniel and Grier approach the upcoming offseason, fans are advocating for a veteran with starting experience rather than relying on untested rookies.
