Backup center Andrew Meyer has played 55 offensive snaps for the Dolphins -- all in a late-season start against Tampa Bay last year when Brewer missed his only game in his 2 1/2 years as a Dolphin.
Aaron Brewer is in concussion protocol. Kacmarek didn't practice with a quad/knee... Darrell Baker's injury that has had him on PUP since July is a knee, it was revealed today.
Players were marveling about this. Phillips said he spoke to their group this week with a message to stick together
Wasn't/isn't draft eligible but a potential UFA college QB portal option now off the board
Sources: Mississippi State star quarterback Kamario Taylor is finalizing a deal to return there in 2027. His return means one of the faces of college football next year will be in Starkville. Taylor led MSU to a 4-0 record to start this year before injury cut short his season.

Hafley said Willis "will be the starter when [he's] healthy when he does return." While team is hopeful he will return this season, he's getting additional medical opinions about surgery & there obviously won't be timetable until that process is complete. Asked if durability will play a factor in determining whether Willis will be the starter beyond this season, Hafley said: "We'll see if he comes back and can play and how he does in those games and if not, we'll have to evaluate in other ways."

Zane Gonzalez will remain kicker... Darrell Baker today begins his 21-day practice window. He has been on PUP this year... Trey Moore not yet ready to practice.
After talking with players, Hafley named Josh Uche a captain after team lost 2 captains with Sieler and Willis.

Dolphins poach one of team’s training camp standouts from Panthers miamiherald.com/sports/artic…
Let me explain the bias I'm referring to: The committee -without seeing anything head to head - automatically assumes that the 3rd, 4th, 5th SEC teams are better than the No. 2 ACC team. (This was reflected yet again in these rankings.) Might Kentucky and all these SEC teams be better than Wake? Perhaps. But how would they or anybody know? When you always assume a 2-loss SEC team is better than a 1-loss ACC team without any evidence that would hold up in court, that's bias.
