So when he talks about the Miami Dolphins quarterback spot, maybe we should listen. It\u2019s no secret that there will probably be a change at the Dolphins QB position this offseason. All signs point to Tua Tagovailoa being on the way out, but who knows who will replace him. Whether Tua is on the Dolphins roster, Marino says there needs to be competition at the position. Competition at any position should make players better themselves, so it will be interesting to see how the new front office handles the quarterback position in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day\u2019s round-up below.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nfl\/profootballtalk\/rumor-mill\/news\/dan-marino-dolphins-need-to-have-a-quarterback-competition\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Dan Marino: Dolphins need to have a quarterback competition;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Dan Marino: Dolphins need to have a quarterback competition<br \/><\/a>The greatest Dolphins quarterback of all time believes his team needs a quarterback competition this season.<\/p>\n<p>Jeff Hafley<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">URL TEXT<br \/>Summary<\/p>\n<p>Dolphins Quarterbacks<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/articles\/chris-perkins-crazy-dolphins-bring-103000468.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Chris Perkins: It would be crazy for Dolphins to bring back Tua;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Chris Perkins: It would be crazy for Dolphins to bring back Tua<br \/><\/a>Tua Tagovailoa shouldn\u2019t return to the Miami Dolphins in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Dolphins Tight Ends<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/atozsports.com\/nfl\/miami-dolphins-news\/tight-end-zack-kuntz-futures-contract-free-agent-signing-dolphins\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The Miami Dolphins\u2019 new free agent signing is one of the greatest athletes in the history of the NFL Combine;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">The Miami Dolphins\u2019 new free agent signing is one of the greatest athletes in the history of the NFL Combine<br \/><\/a>Miami\u2019s latest scratch off ticket has a legendary mark on his resume already.<\/p>\n<p>Dolphins Safeties<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/dolphins\/onsi\/news\/dolphins-2025-safety-report-card-minkah-leads-the-way-01kgspmhdmhe\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Dolphins 2025 Safety Report Card: Minkah Leads the Way;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Dolphins 2025 Safety Report Card: Minkah Leads the Way<br \/><\/a>The Dolphins safety room had some issues outside of Minkah Fitzpatrick.<\/p>\n<p>Dolphins Offseason<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/articles\/nfl-draft-outlook-why-miami-120833076.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:NFL draft outlook: Why Miami Dolphins, Mansoor Delane makes sense;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NFL draft outlook: Why Miami Dolphins, Mansoor Delane makes sense<br \/><\/a>The Miami Dolphins enter the 2026 NFL Draft with needs at cornerback, defensive end, quarterback, wide receiver, tight end, guard and more.<\/p>\n<p>Phinsider News You May Have Missed<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thephinsider.com\/the-splash-zone-miami-dolphins-news\/115010\/the-parallels-between-tua-tagovailoa-and-ryan-tannehill-the-splash-zone-2-6-26\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The parallels between Tua and Tannehill \u2013 The Splash Zone 2\/6\/26;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">The parallels between Tua and Tannehill \u2013 The Splash Zone 2\/6\/26<br \/><\/a>Welcome to the Splash Zone, the quickest way to get your day started off right.
