Dolphins’ biggest mistake at 2026 NFL Trade Deadline
The Miami Dolphins entered the 2026 NFL trade deadline with little hope of saving their season. On Sunday, they suffered a 19-9 loss to the Detroit Lions, dropping their record to 1-7. The situation worsened when quarterback Malik Willis was placed on injured reserve on Tuesday. According to NFL insider Tom Pelissero, Willis’ ongoing groin issue developed into a core muscle injury, forcing him to miss at least four games. After signing a three-year contract worth $67.5 million in the offseason, Willis struggled to find his rhythm, throwing for 1,396 yards, with six touchdowns and six interceptions. Kyle McCord will now take over as the Dolphins’ starting quarterback.
