Miami Dolphins to start Tyler Huntley at quarterback against Titans
View Date:2024-12-23 20:39:14
The Miami Dolphins will start Tyler Huntley at quarterback for their Monday night game against the Tennessee Titans, the team announced Saturday.
Backup Skylar Thompson started in last week's 24-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks but left the game with a rib injury. Tim Boyle will be the backup for Monday's contest for Miami, which has lost two consecutive games.
"I think one thing that was supremely obvious to the team since he got here, and even more so this practice week, is Snoop has started multiple big games," Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said. "Just understanding as a quarterback, what is required to win over teammates and take the place of somebody else and assert their own personality, their own skill set, their own traits within the offense and lead people.
The 26-year-old Huntley was signed by Miami off theBaltimore Ravens practice squad after starter Tua Tagovailoa was placed on injured reserve with a concussion.
Huntley played four seasons with the Ravens and has a 3-6 record as a starting quarterback. For his career, Huntley has thrown 1,957 yards and eight touchdowns with seven interceptions, plus 509 rushing yards and three touchdowns.
