Skylar Thompson Has Efficient Outing In Loss

3 months ago

Miami Dolphins quarterback Skylar Thompson completed 19 of 27 passes for 190 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in the team's 24-14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Friday night. Quarterback Mike White started the game for Miami and racked up just 39 yards on five of nine completions. On his drives, the Dolphins went three-and-out once and failed to convert two fourth downs. Thompson entered the game in the second quarter and immediately drove the team down the field for a score -- connecting with tight end Hayden Rucci three times, including a 20-yard touchdown. He then engineered another scoring drive in the third, hitting wide receiver Kyric McGowan for a one-yard touchdown. That would be the final time the Dolphins scored. It was an efficient night for Thompson as he makes his case to climb the depth chart and be the primary backup to quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. The next time we see Miami suit up for action will be their home opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars two weeks from Sunday.
