Let go by Miami
The Dolphins cut Boyle on Saturday. Boyle could be a candidate to resurface on Miami's practice squad, but with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) now off IR, the Dolphins don't intend to roster three quarterbacks. Tyler Huntley (shoulder) has shifted to IR, meanwhile, leaving Skylar Thompson positioned to work as Tagovailoa's backup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, assuming the franchise QB is indeed cleared to return to action.
Sees action in relief
Boyle completed eight of 13 passes for 74 passes after replacing Tyler Huntley (shoulder) in the third quarter of Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Colts. He added four rushing yards on his lone carry. The 30-year-old quarterback failed to produce points on any of his four drives under center, although Jason Sanders did clank a 54-yard field-goal attempt off the left upright in the fourth quarter. Boyle also saw brief action in Week 3 in relief of Skylar Thompson (ribs), but he could be pressed into duty for a start in Week 8 against the Cardinals if none of Huntley, Thompson or Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) are able to play. Miami doesn't currently have a quarterback on its practice squad, so the team would have to look outside the organization for a backup to Boyle in that scenario.
Signed to active roster
The Dolphins signed Boyle from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports. Boyle has served as the Dolphins' backup quarterback to Tyler Huntley while Skylar Thompson has been sidelined due to a rib injury. Thompson was a full participant in all three practices coming out of the bye, but if he cannot suit up for Sunday's game against the Colts, Boyle will presumably be the No. 2 quarterback behind Huntley.
Bumped back down
Boyle reverted to the Dolphins' practice squad Monday. Boyle was elevated to the active roster for Sunday's game against the Patriots, and operated as Tyler Huntley's backup but never got on the field.
Back with Miami
The Dolphins signed Boyle to the practice squad and elevated him to the active roster Saturday. Boyle was released by the Dolphins on Friday, but as a vested veteran, he can rejoin the practice squad and be elevated immediately. He served as Miami's backup quarterback for Week 4 against the Titans due to Skylar Thompson (ribs) being inactive. Thompson is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, but if he's unable to suit up, Boyle will once again serve as the No. 2 quarterback behind Tyler Huntley.
Let go by Miami
Boyle was released by the Dolphins on Friday. Boyle's release suggests the Dolphins are optimistic that Skylar Thompson (ribs) will be available to back up Tyler Huntley against the Patriots on Sunday, though Thompson officially is listed as questionable. It's possible that Miami intends to quickly sign Boyle to the practice squad so he can be available as the emergency third quarterback this weekend.
Newly minted backup
Boyle is set to be the backup to newly announced starter, Tyler Huntley, ahead of Monday's primetime matchup against the Titans, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports. Boyle didn't do much in replace of the injured Skylar Thompson (rib) during the Week 3 loss to the Seahawks completing seven of his 13 passes for 79 yards over effectively two quarters, but the decision to have Boyle backup Huntley seems far more of an indictment of the play of Thompson than any confidence in Boyle.
Replaces injured Thompson in loss
Boyle replaced Skylar Thompson (rib) with 9:25 remaining in the third quarter of Sunday's 24-3 loss to the Seahawks and completed seven of 13 passes for 79 yards while adding one rush for six yards. The journeyman's experience came in handy during a forgettable afternoon for the Dolphins in the Pacific Northwest, as Boyle was at least serviceable in relief of Thompson. Thompson had started the game in place of Tua Tagovailoa (concussion), and with the former now dealing with a notable injury as well, Boyle could suit up again in the Dolphins' next game Week 4 against the Titans on Sept. 30. However, Boyle may not be the Dolphins' top choice to start if Thompson isn't available, as Miami signed Tyler Huntley off Baltimore's practice squad earlier in the week and could turn to him, if needed. Boyle had signed with Miami's practice squad in late August, so his greater familiarity with head coach Mike McDaniel's scheme may have been a factor in him suiting up Week 3 ahead of Huntley, who was inactive as the emergency third quarterback.
Signed to Fins' active roster
The Dolphins signed Boyle off the practice squad to the active roster Saturday. Boyle signed with the Dolphins' practice squad Aug. 29 after failing to make the Texans' 53-man roster at the conclusion of training camp. He'll join Miami's active roster and is expected to serve as the emergency quarterback Sunday against the Seahawks behind starter Skylar Thompson and backup Tyler Huntley.
