Skylar Thompson’s day on the field came to an abrupt end as the Miami Dolphins were forced to rule him out of the game due to a chest injury in the late stages of the third quarter. The quarterback had been under fire all game, being sacked five times before finally succumbing to the hit by Dre’Mont Jones while completing a pass to De’Von Achane.
The decision to replace Thompson fell on Tim Boyle, who stepped in and managed to complete 2-of-3 passes for a total of nine yards for the remainder of the quarter. As the clock winds down, the Seahawks hold a comfortable 17-3 lead over the Dolphins in Seattle.
With star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa sidelined for at least three more games, Miami is left with a difficult choice for their next matchup against the Titans. Will they turn to Boyle, who has been elevated from the practice squad to take over as the No. 2 behind Thompson, or will they take a chance on Tyler Huntley, who was recently signed as an emergency quarterback?
The decision will be crucial for the Dolphins as they look to salvage their season and maintain their playoff hopes alive. Stay tuned for more updates as the situation unfolds.
