Dolphins' Skylar Thompson: Battling for backup role

Thompson and Mike White are expected to have an open competition for the backup quarterback role in Miami this season, Chris Perkins of the South Florida Sentinel reports.

Thompson appeared in eight games and made three starts -- including one in the postseason -- in 2022, producing 754 passing yards and two touchdowns while throwing five interceptions. The Dolphins brought in former Jet quarterback Mike White this offseason, signing him to a two-year, $8 million contract in March. Thompson will look to beat White out for the primary backup role behind Tua Tagovailoa.
