The Miami Dolphins are bringing in a new quarterback before the end of the 2025 season, with an eye on 2026.
The Dolphins are signing former North Dakota State star Cam Miller, poaching him off the Las Vegas Raiders practice squad on Thursday.
Miller threw for 9,720 yards, 81 touchdowns and 19 interceptions for NDSU from 2020 through 2024. In his final college season, he broke Carson Wentz’s school records for completions (258) and passing yards (3,251) in a single season, leading the program to a second FCS national championship with him behind center. He also led them to a title in 2021, when he started the final eight games.
He was a sixth-round draft pick of the Raiders, behind the endorsement of minority owner and all-time great quarterback Tom Brady. As Miller didn’t make Las Vegas’ roster, he had been stashed on the team’s practice squad during the season, leaving him vulnerable to get picked up on another team’s active roster.
A corresponding move in order to add Miller is not necessary, as the Dolphins have 52 players on their 53-man roster entering the week.
Now the fourth quarterback on the roster, with Quinn Ewers, Zach Wilson and Tua Tagovailoa, Miller doesn’t figure to factor into Miami’s finale at the New England Patriots on Sunday. The Dolphins are looking to develop him throughout the offseason.
“We liked him coming out of the draft,” Dolphins offensive coordinator Frank Smith said in a Thursday web conference with reporters. “He showed great anticipation, conviction, toughness, had a really good understanding of their offense, had really good playing and timing and rhythm. So, he was a guy that we came out of the draft and through the draft process that we really liked, and we’re glad it kind of all worked out.”
