Skylar Thompson Serving As Emergency Third QB On Monday Night

Monday, September 30, 6:19 PM

Miami Dolphins quarterback Skylar Thompson (ribs) is officially inactive for Monday night's contest at Hard Rock Stadium against the visiting Tennessee Titans and will serve as the team's emergency third QB behind starter Tyler Huntley and backup Tim Boyle. There was some uncertainty as to who would start under center for Miami on Monday night after Thompson injured his ribs in the Week 3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Boyle replaced Thompson in that game, but the Dolphins have decided to pivot to the recently signed Huntley, who will be making the 10th start of his career since entering the league in 2020. Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is on Injured Reserve and is out indefinitely. If Huntley handles himself well and gives the team a chance to win on Monday against the Titans, he could be in play to make a second straight start in Week 5 against the division-rival Patriots, regardless of Thompson's health.

Bryce Young Plays Well, Crushes Cardinals’ Playoff Hopes

Monday, December 23, 2:57 AM

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young played complementary, mistake-free football on Sunday, eliminating any mathematical chance the Arizona Cardinals had of earning a playoff spot in Sunday's 36-30 OT win. Young completed 65% of his pass attempts for 158 yards and two touchdowns, adding 68 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown. It was the second-year quarterback's best fantasy performance of the season, delivering in a crucial spot for the few who trusted him in their semifinal matchup. Since regaining the offensive reins after an early-season benching, Young has put some impressive film on tape and potentially earned himself another year as Carolina's starting quarterback. He'll start at Tampa Bay next week and then at Atlanta for the season finale, with a chance to climb out of the division's basement.
