12/17 10:08 CST Dolphins benching Tua Tagovailoa for rookie Quinn Ewers, AP source says Dolphins benching Tua Tagovailoa for rookie Quinn Ewers, AP source says By ROB MAADDI AP Pro Football Writer The Miami Dolphins are benching Tua Tagovailoa for rookie seventh-round pick Quinn Ewers, a person with knowledge of the quarterback change told The Associated Press on Wednesday. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team hasn't announced the switch. Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said he was considering it after a 28-15 loss to the Steelers on Monday night eliminated Miami (6-8) from playoff contention. Tagovailoa leads the NFL with 15 interceptions and hasn't played up to his contract after signing a four-year, $212.4 million extension in July 2024. Ewers was 5 for 8 for 53 yards in his only action this season in a lopsided loss to the Browns in October. He was the 231st player selected in the draft last April after starting three seasons at Texas. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl
