Dolphins' Tyler Huntley: Lands on IR
The Miami Dolphins placed Tyler Huntley (shoulder) on injured reserve Friday.Huntley's move to IR comes on the same day that Tua Tagovailoa officially cleared the NFL's concussion protocol. As a result of the transaction, Huntley won't be available before Week 12. With Tagovailoa slated to reclaim starting duties Sunday against the Cardinals, the loss of Huntley leaves Miami with Skylar Thompson, Tim Boyle and practice-squad member C.J. Beathard as potential backup options at quarterback.

Dolphins' Tyler Huntley: Misses Wednesday's practice
Tyler Huntley (right shoulder) didn't practice Wednesday, Travis Wingfield of the Miami Dolphins' official site reports.When asked about Huntley's availability as Sunday's game against the Cardinals approaches, head coach Mike McDaniel noted, "I don't think (Huntley) is going to be available this week." While Huntley's Week 8 status is cloudy, Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) returned to a limited practice Wednesday and is trending toward a return to the starting lineup this weekend. If that happens and Huntley is unavailable, Miami's backup options versus Arizona would be Skylar Thompson, Tim Boyle and C.J. Beathard.

Dolphins' Tyler Huntley: Recovery timeline still unknown
The Miami Dolphins still aren't sure how severe the shoulder injury Tyler Huntley suffered in Sunday's loss to the Colts is, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.Huntley was unable to compete after suffering the injury and finished the contest with 87 yards and a touchdown while completing seven of 13 passing attempts and adding 20 yards on the ground. According to head coach Mike McDaniel, it's too early to determine the severity of the injury and have a timeline for the Utah product's recovery. With Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) expected to return to practice Wednesday and play Week 8 against the Cardinals, Huntley's injury isn't expected to impact who starts at quarterback for the Dolphins moving forward. However, it'll certainly play a factor in who is operating as Tagovailoa's backup, with Tim Boyle and Skylar Thompson (ribs) also in the mix.

Dolphins' Tyler Huntley: Making third consecutive start
Tyler Huntley will remain the Miami Dolphins' starting quarterback for Sunday's game against the Colts, James Trefry of USA Today reports.Huntley will make his third consecutive start for Miami, and he should be more comfortable with the offensive system after using the Week 6 bye to gain a deeper understanding of the playbook. Skylar Thompson (ribs) practiced fully throughout the week and is listed as questionable, but Huntley has been named the starter regardless of Thompson's availability. Tua Tagovailoa is eligible to come off injured reserve Oct. 23, so he could theoretically be in play for a Week 8 return against the Cardinals, though it's unclear if Tagovailoa has made any progress through the NFL's five-step concussion protocol.

Dolphins' Tyler Huntley: Likely getting another start
Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Monday he would "guess to forecast" that Tyler Huntley will start Week 7 against the Colts even if Skylar Thompson (ribs) returns to full health, Alain Poupart of SI.com reports.Miami managed to scrape to a 15-10 win over the Patriots with Huntley under center Week 5, but he completed just 18 of 31 passes for 194 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. Huntley's dual-threat capabilities also weren't much of a factor, as he rushed only three times for seven yards. Still, Huntley has looked like the Dolphins' most capable quarterback option with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) not eligible to come off IR until Week 8. With the benefit of a bye to continue improving his grasp on the offensive system, Huntley will look to command a more productive offense on the road in Indianapolis on Sunday, Oct. 20.

Dolphins' Tyler Huntley: Pedestrian numbers in win
Tyler Huntley completed 18 of 31 passes for 194 yards with no touchdowns and one interception and rushed three times for seven yards in the Miami Dolphins' 15-10 win over the Patriots on Sunday.Huntley put together another lackluster performance overall, and unlike in a Monday night loss to the Titans six days earlier, he couldn't complement his passing production with his legs. However, Huntley did look smoother when dropping back, more than doubling the 96 passing yards he'd mustered versus Tennessee and connecting with the trio of Tyreek Hill, Jonnu Smith and Jaylen Waddle on 15 occasions. Given Miami was able to pull off the road win, Huntley figures to retain the starting job for a Week 7 road matchup against the Colts on Sunday, Oct. 20 following a Week 6 bye, the final game before Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is eligible to come off injured reserve.

Dolphins' Tyler Huntley: Set for another start
Coach Mike McDaniel said Tuesday that Tyler Huntley will start for Miami on the road against New England on Sunday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.Huntley was mediocre in his Miami Dolphins debut during Monday's 31-12 loss to the Titans, in which he completed 14 of 22 passes for just 96 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. He also rushed eight times for 40 yards and one score, providing a bit of a spark for Miami's rusty offense. McDaniel said Skylar Thompson (ribs) is taking longer than expected to recover, per Alain Poupart of SI.com, which informed the team's decision to name Huntley the Week 5 starter. A matchup against the Patriots provides Huntley with a solid bounce-back opportunity, given that New England has allowed the fifth-most passing yards in the NFL this season.

Dolphins' Tyler Huntley: Lackluster performance in debut
Tyler Huntley completed 14 of 22 passes for 96 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and added eight carries for 40 yards and one score in the Miami Dolphins' 31-12 loss to the Titans on Monday night. He also lost a fumble and caused a safety with an intentional grounding penalty in the end zone.Huntley admittedly didn't have much time to familiarize himself with head coach Mike McDaniel's complex offensive scheme, but there's no getting around the fact he averaged a meager 4.4 yards per attempt and struggled mightily as a passer. Huntley did contribute plenty with his signature rushing ability, running in the Dolphins' only touchdown of the night on a one-yard run with 3:36 remaining. Huntley's first-quarter fumble didn't lead to any Titans points but did occur in Tennessee territory, short-circuiting what could have been a point-producing possession for Miami. Huntley should be more acclimated to the scheme and his talented group of skill-position weapons by the time Sunday's divisional road clash against the Patriots kicks off, but it remains to be seen if it will be him or Skylar Thompson (ribs) who draws the start for that game.

Dolphins' Tyler Huntley: Set to start Monday
Tyler Huntley will start Monday against the Titans, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.Head coach Mike McDaniel confirmed Saturday that Huntley would start after joining the team from Baltimore's practice squad one week earlier. As a result, Tim Boyle will operate as the team's backup. It's a move that could open the offense after Skylar Thompson struggled mightily in his 2024 starting debut before ultimately leaving with a ribs injury late in the Week 3 loss to the Seahawks.
