Another encouraging showing Sunday
Ewers completed 14 of 22 passes for 172 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions and added four rushes for five yards in the Dolphins' 20-17 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also committed a fumble recovered by Miami.
Analysis: Ewers operated in what was mostly a game-manager role, but he flashed with a 63-yard touchdown pass to a wide open Theo Wease in the first quarter to answer an early Buccaneers touchdown before adding an 11-yard scoring strike to Greg Dulcich with just under two minutes remaining in the first half. The rookie signal-caller also managed to avoid turnovers altogether, and through his first two career starts, Ewers has completed 65.0 percent of his passes for 485 yards with a 2:2 TD:INT as the…read more

Respectable in first start
Ewers completed 20 of 30 passes for 260 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions and rushed twice for five yards in the Dolphins' 45-21 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.
Analysis: The rookie seventh-round pick held his own -- albeit in a relatively favorable matchup -- in his first NFL start, arguably offering more of a spark at times than deposed starter Tua Tagovailoa. Ewers didn't take any sacks, but both of his second-half interceptions led to Bengals touchdowns. Ewers spread the ball around well while connecting with nine different targets overall, and he's likely to remain the starter for a Week 17 home matchup against the Buccaneers next Sunday.

Named Week 16 starter
Ewers will start Sunday's game against the Bengals with the Dolphins having decided to bench Tua Tagovailoa, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Ewers, a rookie seventh-round pick, will get the chance to draw his first NFL start in place of Zach Wilson, who has operated as Miami's backup for the majority of the 2025 campaign. Per Rapoport, Ewers' opportunity comes as the result of his simply looking more impressive than Wilson in practices. The former Texas standout compiled significant experience as a starter in college and would doubtless have come off the board earlier in the 2025 NFL Draft had it not been for injury concerns, and he…read more

Remains emergency No. 3 QB
Ewers (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Steelers but will serve as the Dolphins' emergency third quarterback.
Analysis: Ewers will handle his usual role as Miami's emergency third-string quarterback, meaning he will only be eligible to take the field Monday if both Tua Tagovailoa and Zach Wilson are forced out of the game. The only snaps Ewers has taken during the regular season thus far came Week 7 against the Browns.

Serving as emergency No. 3 QB again
Ewers (coach's decision) is inactive and working as the Dolphins' emergency third quarterback for Sunday's Week 13 game against New Orleans.
Analysis: This is a familiar role for Ewers, who is behind both Tua Tagovailoa and Zach Wilson on Miami's QB depth chart. In order for Ewers to be eligible to enter Sunday's contest, both Tagovailoa and Wilson would need to exit due to injury, illness or ejection.

Back to No. 3 QB
Ewers (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Falcons but will serve as the emergency third QB.
Analysis: It's a role that the Texas product has played all season behind Tua Tagovailoa and Zach Wilson. However, Wilson and Ewers switched spots last week, only to revert to the usual order this week. Ewers would need Tagovailoa and Wilson to get sick, injured or ejected to have a chance to play. Ewers saw his first taste of action last week against Cleveland, completing five of eight passes for 53 yards.

Competing for No. 2 QB
Head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday that Ewers will compete with Zach Wilson this week for the Dolphins' backup quarterback position, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.
Analysis: The rookie from Texas had served as the Dolphins' emergency third quarterback in each of the team's first six games but was promoted to the backup role in Week 7. Ewers entered Sunday's loss in the fourth quarter, completing five of eight pass attempts for 53 yards. However, his ball-security issues likely contributed to McDaniel's decision to open a competition for the No. 2 QB position, as Ewers fumbled twice on just 12 offensive snaps, though neither were recovered by the defense.

Promoted to No. 2 QB
Ewers will be the backup quarterback behind Tua Tagovailoa during Sunday's game against the Browns, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Zach Wilson had been the primary backup for the first six weeks of 2025, with Ewers serving as the emergency No. 3 QB. The only snaps Tagovailoa has missed this season came in Week 1 when the Colts were blowing out the Dolphins.

Serving as emergency QB in Week 1
Ewers is inactive and will work as Miami's emergency third quarterback Sunday versus Indianapolis.
Analysis: Ewers is third in the Dolphins' QB pecking order, so his inactive status comes as no surprise. In order for the 2025 seventh-round draft selection to be eligible to enter Sunday's contest, both Tua Tagovailoa and Zach Wilson would need to be sidelined due to injury, illness or ejection.

Plays late in preseason win
Ewers completed seven of eight passes for 66 yards in Saturday's 14-6 preseason win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Ewers was the third Dolphins quarterback to enter the game, and he quickly connected on a 21-yard gain with Andrew Armstrong. He otherwise attempted passes primarily in the short areas of the field while limiting mistakes. Ewers had an inconsistent first preseason as a pro and looks likely to serve as the third quarterback in Miami to begin the season.

Bounces back vs. Lions
Ewers completed 11 of 17 pass attempts for 116 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 24-17 preseason win over Detroit.
Analysis: 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)…read more
