Most of the Miami Dolphins players spent a Week 6 bye getting some much-needed rest and recuperation.<\/p>\n
Not Tyler Huntley.<\/p>\n
The quarterback, who was signed by the Dolphins in September and started for the team in Weeks 4 and 5, used the time off to get caught up on the Miami offense.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe cut-ups, the practice film, and some of the stuff to get ahead of what we\u2019ll probably do with the Indianapolis Colts, as well as just the whys and whats for our whole offense, he really got to jump into,\u201d Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said Monday. \u201cI promise you that you have to be a very, very well oiled professional to be able to command the offense the way he has and he\u2019s improved every work week we\u2019ve had.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m very excited for the offense for him to get another week under his belt to operate to its full steam because I thought we got better, not worse from his first start to his second and that\u2019s what you want to see to his third.\u201d<\/p>\n
After generating only 184 yards of offense in a loss to the Tennessee Titans, the Huntley-led Dolphins more than doubled their output with a 372-yard day against the New England Patriots.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s just gotten better at everything that he thinks he can get better at,\u201d Dolphins offensive lineman Austin Jackson said. \u201cHe\u2019s very confident leading the offense which is great. I think he\u2019s just the type of guy that\u2019s gets better every day, and in this league, that will be good for you.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Dolphins are counting on that improvement to continue as they wait for Tua Tagovailoa to be ready to make his return from injured reserve. Tagovailoa is eligible to return in Week 8, but\u00a0Miami hasn\u2019t disclosed a timeline\u00a0for his recovery from a concussion suffered in Week 2.<\/p>\n
In the meantime, Huntley\u2019s doing what he can to try to get the Dolphins back. on track.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe told me to come back a little early so we could throw,\u201d Dolphins receiver Jaylen Waddle said Monday. \u201cSnoop be trying to get that work in.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
