Early in the 2022 offseason, even when the Miami Dolphins were still between coaches after firing Brian Flores but before hiring Mike McDaniel, they put the word out that they were not pursuing a high-level quarterback to unseat Tua Tagovailoa.
The Dolphins’ actions since have backed that up.
When Deshaun Watson was cleared criminally amid sexual misconduct and sexual assault allegations, the Dolphins didn’t insert themselves into the frenzy of teams interested in trading for him. He ultimately went from the Houston Texans to the Cleveland Browns. Miami didn’t get involved in trade talks for Russell Wilson or Matt Ryan, neither, as the veteran signal-callers also changed teams.
