HENDERSON, Nev. (AP) — Quarterback Kirk Cousins and running back Ashton Jeanty attracted much of the attention for the Las Vegas Raiders ' season-opening victory over Miami on Sunday. Beyond that, Las Vegas also got the best of the Dolphins on the offensive and defensive lines.

It’s just Week 2 of the 2026 NFL season, but Miami Dolphins fans are already looking forward to 2027. With the current construction of their roster, this team is not quite built to compete yet this year.

The Miami Dolphins moved on from three quarterbacks in the least two weeks, and now one of them is signing with the Houston Texans practice squad.

Months after drafting him in the sixth round, the Eagles waived him late in training camp in 2025 but re-signed him to the practice squad and he spent last season working with then-Eagles offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo, who is the Dolphins’ passing game coordinator.
