Dolphins coach on potential QB change: 'Everything is on the table'

Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Tuesday that he's considering a quarterback change from traditional starter Tua Tagovailoa.

McDaniel's comments came one day after the Dolphins (6-8) were eliminated from playoff contention with a 28-15 setback to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

"The quarterback play last night was not good enough," McDaniel said. "So for me, everything is on the table."

Tagovailoa, 27, completed 6 of 10 passes for 65 yards while throwing his NFL-leading 15th interception through the first three quarters of Monday's game. He finished 22 of 28 for 253 yards with a pair of late touchdowns to tight end Darren Waller.

Tagovailoa has thrown for 2,660 yards and 20 touchdowns this season for the Dolphins, who host the Cincinnati Bengals (4-10) on Sunday.

Zach Wilson and rookie Quinn Ewers have seen limited work this season. The former completed 6 of 9 passes for 32 yards in three games, while the latter is 5-for-8 for 53 yards in one game.

McDaniel said he is "trying to determine who gives us the best chance to win." He also noted that he will have a decision on Wednesday as to who will start Sunday.
