Tua Tagovailoa is out for the Miami Dolphins in a must-win game against the New York Jets and Tyler Huntley will start at quarterback in his place.

Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that he’s preparing as if Tyler Huntley will remain in the lineup in Week 18.

Some of the Dolphins' quarterbacks who have been willing to run in past years include Pat White, Ryan Tannehill, Jay Fiedler and Ryan Fitzpatrick. None of those players will be confused with RGIII. But Huntley, a native of Dania Beach, can be really dangerous with his legs.

Tagovailoa ‘would be a limited participant,’ coach Mike McDaniel said, explaining that he’s ‘approaching it as though I think Snoop is starting today.’

The Browns scored nothing on their trip into the red zone. Quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson's fourth-down pass from the Miami 3 to wide receiver Jerry Jeudy was broken up by cornerback Jalen Ramsey with 14:11 remaining.

He made some plays and was very good with the ball, and those are always cool things for a player when they’re playing a team that they were on in that same calendar year,” coach Mike McDaniel said.
