Dolphins name Mike White QB2

The Dolphins named Mike White as their backup quarterback, coach Mike McDaniel said Monday, after a monthslong competition with Skylar Thompson.

Fantasy Impact:

On four occasions last season, the Dolphins were forced to turn to a backup quarterback after their starter was knocked out of a game. They signed White to a two-year, $8 million contract this offseason with $4.5 million guaranteed to operate as the primary backup to Tagovailoa and he competed with the 2022 seventh-round pick Thompson throughout the summer for the job. There was a point this summer where some who follow the team felt Thompson may pass White on the depth chart, but for now the team is going with White as the QB2.

Dolphins Beat: Skylar Thompson could earn QB2 job

With Mike White now in the concussion protocol and with second-year seventh-rounder Skylar Thompson looking pretty good against the Texans on Saturday, it’s fair to ask whether Thompson might leapfrog White.

Fantasy Impact:

White has the second spot on the unofficial preseason depth chart, according to the story, but Thompson, who helped the Dolphins make things interesting in the playoffs against the Bills, looked good in Houston, completing 15 of 22 passes for 157 yards and three touchdowns. Normally there isn't a ton of hype around backup quarterbacks, but with Tua struggling with concussions last year, knowing his backup could be valuable, especially in deeper or two QB leagues.
