The Miami Dolphins have crossed off a number of their offseason checklist items leading up to the start of training camp, but still have a couple of big ones remaining.
Mike McDaniel and Chris Grier's tenure as leaders of the Miami Dolphins has been marked by attempts to rebuild since their fourth season. The offseason saw significant changes, focusing on creating a cohesive team culture. They bid farewell to players resistant to the new culture and aimed to rejuvenate the roster's age demographics, shedding the reputation of having the oldest team in the league. Leadership remains a concern for the organization, as past hires showed a lack of understanding regarding effective leadership within a team context.
Since McDaniel was hired in 2022, the Dolphins have had problems with all of their backup quarterbacks - Nos. 2, 3, and 4. Whether it's been Skylar Thompson (2022-24), Teddy Bridgewater (2022), Mike White (2023), Tim Boyle (2024), or Tyler 'Snoop' Huntley (2024), none has been an adequate fill-in.
