Dolphins to sign QB Tyler Huntley off Ravens practice squad

Miami Dolphins sign quarterback Tyler Huntley off the Baltimore Ravens practice squad to their active roster

Tyler Huntley is departing Baltimore again, this time for the potential opportunity to start games for an AFC East playoff hopeful.

Tom Pelissero reports that the Miami Dolphins are signing Huntley off the Baltimore Ravens practice squad ahead of Week 3.

Dolphins star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is in the concussion protocol and could miss significant time after exiting Thursday night’s loss to the Buffalo Bills.

Skylar Thompson is in line to start for Miami on Sunday at Seattle, and Huntley could serve as the backup or potentially take over for a Dolphins team looking to stay in the playoff hunt.

Huntley signed with the Ravens as an undrafted free agent out of Utah in 2020. After season-ending injuries to Jackson, Huntley took over as the team’s starter to finish the 2021 and 2022 seasons. He almost succeeded in leading Baltimore to an upset victory over the Cincinnati Bengals in the playoffs.

Through four seasons with the Ravens, Huntley completed 221 passes for 1,957 yards, eight touchdowns, and seven interceptions.

Should the Ravens have interest in QB Tyler Huntley after he’s released by Browns?

Cleveland Browns release former Baltimore Ravens QB Tyler Huntley

The Baltimore Ravens will enter the 2024 NFL season with just two quarterbacks on the 53-man roster, but a familiar face is available heading into Week 1.

Mary Kay Cabot is reporting that the Cleveland Browns have released former Ravens Pro Bowl quarterback Tyler Huntley. The team will move forward with Jameis Winston and Dorian Thompson-Robinson as the backup quarterbacks on the roster as it prepares for its Week One matchup with the Cowboys.

Browns release Tyler Huntley after no trade partners stepped in

The Browns are down to three quarterbacks.

After attempting to trade quarterback Tyler Huntley and rostering him on their initial 53-man roster, the Cleveland Browns are now releasing the veteran quarterback.

This felt like the likely outcome after the Los Angeles Chargers opted to trade for Taylor Heinicke rather than Huntley to upgrade their backup quarterback situation.

It was evident that the Browns were never going to roster four quarterbacks, however, they gave themselves a bit more time to try to find a trade partner for Huntley by putting him on their initial 53-man roster. This leaves the Browns with Deshaun Watson, Jameis Winston, and Dorian Thompson-Robinson as their three rostered quarterbacks.

Look for Huntley to return to the practice squad in Cleveland. He does not have to subject himself to the waiver wire as a vested veteran, so he could re-sign at any moment anywhere around the league.

He will likely feel out if there are any spots on 53-man rosters around the league for him, but if he cannot find a roster spot expect him back in Berea.

Browns still taking calls on backup quarterbacks

The Browns won’t keep 4 quarterbacks into the season.

On Tuesday, the Cleveland Browns and the rest of the NFL whittled their roster down to 53 men. The process continued throughout the day, with moves leaking out each passing hour. Cleveland carried four quarterbacks into the day and needed to decide on their pecking order, but ended with all three on their initial 53-man roster.

Quarterback Deshaun Watson is the obvious starter, but beyond him, there were three names that fans had a case to end up with in the 53. Tyler Huntley, Dorian Thompson-Robinson, and Jameis Winston have all had separate moments in the NFL, though Winston reached the highest heights of the group.

However, the Browns have been bullish on Thompson-Robinson since they selected him last year. He spot-started several games during his rookie season and had a mixed bag. Thompson-Robinson certainly needed to improve heading into his sophomore season, and team brass felt like he proved he did during training camp and preseason. Cleveland informed Thompson-Robinson that he would make the team on Tuesday, and considering his name was thrown around in trade talks a few short days ago, they could be looking to deal Winston or Huntley.

After the news broke, The Athletic’s Diana Russini reiterated the report that the Browns would “field calls” on Winston and Huntley and see what they could get in return. They likely will keep one on the practice squad for depth, but finding the right deal for one of them could be a nice way to cap off Cleveland’s roster finalization.

Could the Browns really trade backup QB Jameis Winston?

Could the Browns trade their backup QB yet again?

After an impressive preseason performance yet again by quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson, there are reports that the Cleveland Browns will explore trading the other quarterbacks, Tyler Huntley and Jameis Winston.

The news comes after Thompson-Robinson was told that he officially has made the 53-man roster entering the regular season. With the confidence and experience that he has displayed so far, the Browns seem comfortable with him if he were to be the second-string quarterback.

The reasons to keep Thompson-Robinson are obvious, but keeping Jameis could be just as important. Winston has brought incredible energy to the team with his pre-game speeches, races in practice against Mike Vrabel, and press conference quotes. His mic’d up moments so far from this preseason show that he has become a quick favorite among Browns players.

Huntley is the quarterback who was always most likely to be moved first out of all of Cleveland’s quarterbacks. His contract did not provide any security after this season and did not have the same experience or skillset as Winston. The Browns continue to make many roster moves and this will be one to watch over the next few days.

Mike Woods II scores his second touchdown with 8 seconds left vs. Seahawks

Woods x2!

The Cleveland Browns did not win their final exhibition game against the Seattle Seahawks, but it was the best offensive showing we’ve seen all preseason. And that was led by wide receiver Mike Woods II.

The Browns connected with four touchdowns through the air on the night, and two of them fell into the hands of the third-year receiver from Oklahoma. First, quarterback Tyler Huntley found him for an easy touchdown strike from 12 yards out.

This time, Huntley threw a dart to Woods’ back shoulder along the boundary in the endzone, and the receiver went up and made a great play on the football to reel it in for six points. Huntley also hit wideout James Proche II for a touchdown in this preseason game against the Seahawks as well.

Woods and Huntley both are fighting to hang around in Berea. It is unlikely they stick on the 53-man roster, but their play may warrant them a spot on the practice squad. The Browns have until Tuesday to cut their roster down, so these two are worth monitoring.

Browns strike for 6 again as Mike Woods II hits paydirt

The two are looking to audition their services!

The Cleveland Browns and quarterback Tyler Huntley are finding the most offensive success they have found all preseason. After hitting James Proche II for a touchdown earlier, Huntley finds wide receiver Mike Woods II for his second touchdown pass of the game.

Neither player is likely to make the 53-man roster with the Browns. Huntley finds himself behind all of Deshaun Watson, Jameis Winston, and Dorian Thompson-Robinson in the quarterback room. Woods II finds himself buried behind a revamped wide receiver room that likely rosters six different playmakers.

However, for tonight the two are doing what they can do to hang around in the NFL. From 12 yards out, Huntley floated the football over the defender’s head right into the bread basket of Woods II. With still some time left on the clock, the duo still have a chance to continue to make names for themselves.

What more can the two do for themselves to prove they deserve to stick around in Berea?

Tyler Huntley auditioning with second half touchdown pass vs. Seahawks

Huntley is looking to catch on somewhere. An audition like this should help.

The Cleveland Browns are fighting well into the night as they continue through their preseason finale against the Seattle Seahawks. Cutting their deficit, quarterback Tyler Huntley was able to find receiver James Proche II from seven yards out for the Browns’ second touchdown of the game.

Huntley, the former backup and spot starter for the Baltimore Ravens, is fighting for a spot on the Browns’ practice squad or an opportunity to catch on somewhere else. Unfortunately, Huntley does not have a pathway to the 53-man roster in Cleveland but is putting on a showcase for 31 other teams.

This late-game strike should help.

For Proche, he joined the Browns as a special teamer a year ago and was signed to the active roster after the trade of Donovan Peoples-Jones. His pathway to the 53-man roster is also extremely murky, but he is certainly a player the Browns would welcome back to their practice squad.

Can the Browns find more fireworks in this game?
