Dolphins release Mike White, leaving Skylar Thompson as the team’s No. 2 QB

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — The Miami Dolphins cut quarterback Mike White on Sunday, leaving Skylar Thompson as Tua Tagovailoa’s likely backup for the 2024 season.

White backed up Tagovailoa in 2023 after signing a two-year contract with the Dolphins last offseason. He appeared in six games in 2023, with 74 yards passing, one touchdown and one interception.

White and Thompson split reps throughout the preseason as they competed for the No. 2 spot. White completed 20 of 43 passes for 179 yards with no touchdowns.
