Tyler Huntley is happy to come home to Miami
The Dolphins needed a quarterback. They added a player with starting experience — but with no experience in coach Mike McDaniel’s offense.
But Tyler Huntley has experience in Miami, and he’s happy to be coming home.
“I was thinking about it a lot,” Huntley told reporters regarding the possibility of joining the Dolphins once their need for a quarterback arose last Thursday. “I was really thinking about it coming out of the draft and I was hoping Miami would have come and got me. But, you know, God’s plan and we’re here now.”
He’ll have to learn a new playbook. And he’s ready to do it.
“Just the different terminologies I got to get used to,” Huntley said. “All of the pre-snap stuff, I just got to get in tune with it. It’s nothing. Football is football. I should be able to do it.”
It’ll be worth it, given the other players in the offense.
“It’s kind of like playing Madden,” Huntley said. “You got a lot of weapons out there. You just got to go out there and play ball. . . . You get to throw to some weapons and then we’re going to score a lot of points. I’m ready to contribute.”
Huntley knows his athleticism will be a bonus.
“There is so much speed on the outside, a couple of QB runs up the middle and stuff, get the defense to play honest,” he said. “There’s no way they could stick all of that speed at once.”
For now, Huntley will be backing up Skylar Thompson. Maybe it’ll syay that way until Tua Tagovailoa returns. Regardless, the Dolphins have made their move and added a quarterback and time will tell whether he can play his way onto the field.

Girl, 12, shot while sitting in parked car in northwest Miami-Dade, deputies say
MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — A 12-year-old girl was shot in the arm after gunfire erupted in a northwest Miami-Dade neighborhood early Tuesday morning, according to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies said they responded just before 1 a.m. to the area of Northwest 64th Street and Northwest 21st Avenue in the county’s Gladeview area, where they found three vehicles struck by gunfire, including a silver Hyundai.
“The car was parked outside of the residence. It was occupied by three juveniles, so it was the girl and her two siblings that were in the vehicle. The mom was outside of the vehicle at the time, so this could have been a very different outcome,” MDSO Detective Samantha Choon said.
Authorities said Miami-Dade Fire Rescue medics transported the girl to a nearby hospital in stable condition.
A family member of the victim told Local 10’s Jackie Pascale that the girl is now home and doing OK.
They said neither her siblings nor their mother was injured in the shooting.
According to investigators, no arrests have been made, and detectives have not released any suspect information at this time.
Neighbor Marie Grimes said she was shaken after hearing multiple gunshots.
“I heard the booms — boom, boom, boom, boom — and I said, ‘Oh my God, what’s happening?’” she said. “Maybe five or six, ’cause look at that right there. I’m just glad the little girl is OK.”
Investigators asked neighbors to check their surveillance or Ring camera footage from around 1 a.m. and contact authorities with any information.
Anyone with information on the shooting is urged to contact Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477. Anonymous tips are accepted.
