2024 Fantasy Outlook
Thompson's rookie season with the Dolphins was his most eventful, as he piloted one regular-season win and showed flashes in a 34-31 wild-card loss to Buffalo. He didn't get any playing time in 2023 after the addition of Mike White to serve as Tua Tagovailoa's top backup, but salary cap situations could mean that won't be a long-term bandaid. Thompson boasts dual-threat athletic traits and will be going into his third year of development in coach Mike McDaniel's system, so he could surprise if he gets an opportunity. Read Past Outlooks

Avoids injury report
Thompson (ribs) is not listed on Wednesday's injury report, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel declined Wednesday to state whether Thompson will act as the team's backup quarterback for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, but he noted that Tyler Huntley (shoulder) is expected to miss Week 8. With Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) practicing on a limited basis and potentially in line to start Sunday, Thompson, Tim Boyle and practice-squad member C.J. Beathard could all be candidates for the No. 2 gig.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Thompson showed some flashes as a rookie after joining Miami as a seventh-rounder last season. In two starts, he managed a regular-season finale win over the Jets and put up a fight against the Bills in a 34-31 wild-card loss. Though Thompson carries over a unique amount of experience into Year 2 for a player in his draft slot, the Dolphins did see fit to pursue a more experienced backup in the form of Mike White to support Tua Tagovailoa. Still, Thompson's athletic traits and rookie flashes make his development is worth monitoring.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
In Week 8 starting mix
Thompson could be poised to reclaim the starting role in Week 8 against the Cardinals, as Tyler Huntley exited Sunday's loss to the Colts due to a right shoulder injury.
ANALYSIS
If Huntley doesn't play in Week 8 and Tua Tagovailoa doesn't clear the NFL's concussion protocol, Thompson would be Miami's top option under center, assuming Thompson gains clearance from a rib injury of his own. Thompson was inactive against the Colts and hasn't played since Week 3, but he was close to suiting up after being a full practice participant throughout the week. Tagovailoa is eligible to come off injured reserve prior to the game against Arizona.
