The Miami Dolphins were struggling midway through the season at 2-6 and playing nothing like a potential playoff contender.

Last meeting: Dolphins beat Jets beat 32-26 in overtime on Dec. 8, 2024, in Miami Gardens, Florida. Last week: Dolphins beat Browns 20-3; Jets lost to Bills 40-14.

Aaron Rodgers was questioned by reporters on Wednesday whether the Jets' season finale against the Dolphins could be his final NFL game, and he said 'of course'

During the 20 minutes open to reporters, Tagovailoa was seen lightly throwing a few passes while standing in a stationary position. Unlike Wednesday, he did not contort his body while throwing. He was standing watching practice the rest of the time, with hands in his pockets.

Tua Tagovailoa was limited in Wednesday’s practice as the Miami Dolphins quarterback deals with a right hip injury that sidelined him in Week 17

The Miami Dolphins are unlikely to start star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa against the New York Jets on Sunday for Week 18. According to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport, "The #Dolphins are preparing for QB Snoop Huntley to start on Sunday against the #Jets, according to coach Mike McDaniel. Tua Tagovailoa will practice on a limited basis, however."

The Dolphins needed overtime to beat the Jets in Week 14. These five players need to step up if Miami hopes to get a smoother result Sunday.

Chris Simms and Mike Florio discuss if the Miami Dolphins have what it takes to beat the New York Jets — in what could be Aaron Rodgers' last NFL game — to make a final push for the playoffs.
