Dolphins' Quinn Ewers: Bounces back vs. Lions
Rotowire
Ewers completed 11 of 17 pass attempts for 116 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 24-17 preseason win over Detroit.
Ewers bounced back from a rough preseason debut by tossing two touchdowns against the Lions, both of which came in the form of connections to Theo Wease (6-80-2). Arguably Ewers' highlight of the day came in the form of a third-down connection to AJ Henning in the fourth quarter, in which the rookie seventh-round pick connected on a tight window slant that had essentially no room for error. Zach Wilson started Saturday but struggled more than his passing line (15-for-23, 151 yards, one score) might let on. Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said he won't "overreact to results" after just one preseason showing, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports, but Ewers' strong performance might provide him an opportunity to push Wilson for the backup gig behind Tua Tagovailoa if he can finish strong during Miami's exhibition finale against the Jaguars next Saturday.

Dolphins' Quinn Ewers: Round 7 pick by Dolphins
Rotowire
The Dolphins selected Ewers in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 231st overall.
Ewers transferred to Texas after a year at Ohio State and started three years for the Longhorns, posting his best to date in 2025 to the tune of 3,472 passing yards and a 31:12 TD:INT ratio over 14 games, earning him Second Team All-SEC. He elected to bypass his final season of college eligibility to turn pro due to Arch Manning waiting in the wings in Austin, and he finally heard his name called in the final round of the draft. Ewers was a high-profile recruit coming out of high school and has battled through injuries throughout his career; however, he possesses some intriguing traits as a development project. He'll slot into a depth role behind Tua Tagovailoa and Zach Wilson in Miami and will aim to prove his worth in training camp.
