Per Tom Pelissero of NFL Media, the Dolphins will be signing quarterback Tyler Huntley from Baltimore’s practice squad.

With Thompson expected to start with Tua out, Huntley doesn't have experience in the offense as the now backup QB. The piece went on to say C.J. Beathard, who knows the Miami offense from his time in San Francisco, was on the short list. Others, like former Dolphins backup quarterback Mike White, were not, the story added. Huntley, of course, was Lamar Jackson's backup, even making the Pro Bowl. He was signed by Cleveland, but eventually cut and was back in Baltimore as the QB3 behind Josh Johnson.
