The Miami Dolphins are hitting the road again to take on the New York Jets on Sunday at MetLife Stadium, as Mike McDaniel’s team looks to improve their record to 4-1.
Miami is entering this matchup having lost their quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa, and their first game of the 2022 campaign against the Cincinnati Bengals, leaving Teddy Bridgewater as the leader of the offense.
On the other side, Zach Wilson has returned for the Jets and helped them earn a victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 4. There’s talent there for Robert Saleh to work with, but they just need to put it together and prove that they’re a team headed in the right direction.
