Miami Dolphins Face Backup Quarterback Challenges After Pre-Season Game

The Miami Dolphins are assessing their backup quarterbacks after a lackluster showing in their first pre-season game. Coaches began reviewing game footage shortly after the team's return home.

While the first-team offense demonstrated promise, the backup quarterbacks struggled significantly. Quinn Ewers completed only 1 of 8 passes and threw an interception, while Cam Miller managed 3 completions on 11 attempts, also throwing two interceptions. This poor performance has raised alarms about the team's depth at the quarterback position.

General Manager Jon-Eric Sullivan is likely to seek improvements, as both Ewers and Miller may not be viable options moving forward. Potential trade targets include Anthony Richardson, Gardner Minshew, and others, but the Dolphins face challenges in securing a competent backup quarterback in a league where quality starters are scarce.
