Tua Tagovailoa benched after dismal 31-6 loss to Browns, with Miami dropping to 1-6.

Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was benched after a disastrous 31-6 loss to the Browns, calling his performance "not proud" following three interceptions, a career-low 24.1 passer rating, 100 yards, and three fumbles—none lost. Miami managed just 219 net yards and went 1-of-13 on third down, with coach Mike McDaniel citing around 20 self-inflicted mistakes. The Browns scored 21 points off four turnovers, including a 34-yard defensive touchdown. Rookie Quinn Ewers replaced Tagovailoa in the fourth quarter, completing 5 of 8 passes for 53 yards and being sacked twice. The loss dropped Miami to 1-6, increasing scrutiny on the team’s coaching and roster.
