Week 2 was a whirlwind for the Miami Dolphins. They had a quick turnaround from their Week 1 victory<\/a> against Jacksonville to a Thursday night showdown against the Buffalo Bills. A game in which everything that could go wrong did for Miami. The biggest issue came late in the third quarter when Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was injured<\/a>\u00a0when he suffered a concussion on a scramble for a first down. It’s been reported that the Dolphins signal caller said he has, “no plans to retire<\/a>” but Miami was in the market for depth behind interim starter<\/a> Skyler Thompson. News broke Monday that Miami signed Tyler Huntley<\/a> off the Ravens practice squad<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tyler “Snoop” Huntley<\/h3>\n

Huntley slots in behind Thompson but will push for starting reps as he becomes more familiar with Miami’s system. Huntley’s played in nine career regular season games and two playoff games, one as a starter and the other in spot duty. He’s amassed a 3-6 regular season record, but flashed his dual threat ability every time he’s played.<\/p>\n

The former Raven has thrown for almost 2,ooo yards and eight td’s, and added another three on the ground. He first caught the attention of Ravens fans with a five td performance<\/a> in a preseason game against Washington in 2021. He then had a huge four td performance<\/a> against the Packers that same season. Huntley spearheaded a comeback performance that ultimately fell short when the Ravens elected to go for two to win the game instead of tying it up with an extra point.<\/p>\n

“Snoop” performed well in his first playoff start, but is best remembered for an unfortunate goal-line<\/a> fumble that swung the game Cincinnati’s favor.<\/p>\n
