Dolphins preparing bold move involving Tua Tagovailoa, Tyreek Hill for 2025 NFL season

Fans were expecting the Miami Dolphins to have an outstanding 2025 NFL season. However, a bold move by the coaching staff involving Tua Tagovailoa, Tyreek Hill, and other stars may change everything for the club.

The Dolphins are facing the Jaguars in the final game of the 2025 preseason. Against all odds, HC Mike McDaniel intends to play the starters even though the regular season debut is just a couple of weeks away.

Mike McDaniel confirmed the news during Thursday’s press conference. This means that Tua Tagovailoa, Tyreek Hill, and other first-stringers will see some action against the Jaguars on Saturday.

How long will the Dolphins’ starters play against the Jaguars?

McDaniel didn’t confirm how long the team’s starters will be on the field. While many believe they will only take a few reps, the head coach may have another plan in mind.

Using the starters in the last preseason game is a clear sign that he wants to get them in rhythm for Week 1. For that reason, only playing them for a few snaps wouldn’t be ideal, and they may see more action than expected.

The Jaguars may also use some starters, but no details have been disclosed yet. It seems like Miami has more interest in testing how the actual team will perform heading into the season and proving it in the preseason finale.

According to reports, Tyreek Hill is still questionable, but he returned to practice a few days ago. This could be key for McDaniel, as the wide receiver’s request to leave raised concerns about his relationship with Tagovailoa and their chemistry on the field.

What’s next for the Dolphins?

Miami closes the preseason against the Jaguars on Saturday at 7:00 p.m. ET. Then, they will have two weeks to prepare for their grand debut in the 2025 season.
