Miami Dolphins fans who wanted to see more of rookie quarterback Quinn Ewers won't be getting that.
On Monday , Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel confirmed he isn't benching starting QB Tua Tagovailoa, despite a dreadful showing in Week 7 against the Cleveland Browns.
In a 31-6 road loss in Cleveland on Sunday , Tagovailoa completed 12-of-23 passes for 100 yards and tossed three interceptions. Late in the fourth quarter, Ewers replaced him, completing 5-of-8 passes for 53 yards.
McDaniel benching Tagovailoa in favor of the seventh-round pick out of Texas amid a 1-6 start wouldn't be unwarranted. The coach implied he would consider it following the loss to the Browns. But the problem is he isn't in a position to do that.
