With Miami, he has completed 81 of his 138 pass attempts for 721 yards with one touchdown and three interceptions.<\/p>\n<p>The Dolphins mark the fifth different team Boyle has played for during his NFL career that began in 2019. Stepping in for the injured Thompson in Sunday\u2019s losing effort, Boyle went 7-of-13 for 79 yards. In his career to date, Boyle has completed 121 of 196 pass attempts for 1,013 yards with four TDs and 12 interceptions.<\/p>\n<p>Huntley, meanwhile, spent his first four seasons as a Baltimore Raven before heading south to join the Dolphins. While Huntley has only appeared in 20 games, he has a larger sample size, completing 221 of 342 pass attempts for 1,957 yards with eight TDs and seven interceptions. Huntley also brings more of a dual-threat dynamic, having rushed 115 times for 509 yards and three TDs during his career.<\/p>\n<p>While a decision has not officially been made on Thompson\u2019s status, Boyle and Huntley are both new to the organization, so whether Thompson is cleared or not or McDaniel chooses to go with a different QB, a decision should be expected as soon as possible to allow players time to prepare for the \u201cMNF\u201d game against Tennessee (7:30 p.m. ET, ESPN).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miami Dolphins quarterback Skylar Thompson (19) throws the football against the Buffalo Bills during the fourth quarter at Hard Rock Stadium.
