The Miami Dolphins' 2025 season fell off the rails quickly, and it ultimately led to the benching of long-time starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa after they were eliminated from playoff contention in Week 15. Rookie QB Quinn Ewers has started in his place ever since, and he has shown promise despite mediocre overall numbers.
With Tagovailoa seemingly done in Miami, the Dolphins' biggest concern heading into 2026 is what the future looks like at QB. Whoever the next general manager ultimately is will have to find a solution for at least 2026, and Ewers appears to be in the running for that job.
