The Miami Dolphins kicked off their three-day mandatory minicamp, with notable absences including Pro Bowl players Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu Smith. Coach Mike McDaniel's unusual irritability contrasted with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's confident performance, particularly during 7-on-7 drills, indicating a positive offseason for him. Zach Wilson also showcased his skills, solidifying his position as the backup quarterback. Despite a pick-six from rookie Quinn Ewers, the overall performance by the quarterbacks was deemed strong. The inside linebacker group continues to impress, highlighting the team's depth in key positions.
Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa looked good in the first round of 7-on-7 drills, hitting wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine on an 8-yard touchdown pass against cornerback Kendall Sheffield.
Wilson appears to be the solid No. 2 choice at quarterback, ahead of rookie draftee Quinn Ewers.
Coach Mike McDaniel seemed a bit irritable during his pre-practice media session, using a couple of profanities and not in his usual wise-cracking mood.
Overall the Dolphins' top three quarterbacks - Tagovailoa, Wilson, and Ewers - have been solid in the offseason.
