THE Miami Dolphins have have a clear choice over their starting quarterback position for the 2025 NFL season.
The AFC East team have had to contend with some tough decisions over the past year at QB.

However, he suffered another concussion in the last campaign, that had him out for months.
There have been calls for him to retire at the age of just 27 for health reasons.
He has had to contend with multiple serious head injuries in his career already.
That has led to head coach Mike McDaniel having a few tough conversations.
The Dolphins signed former second overall pick Zach Wilson in the summer.
The 25-year-old joined on a one-year $6 million deal with the NFL team in the offseason.
It came after spending a year as back-up to Bo Nix at the Denver Broncos.
Now, the Dolphins have two quality quarterbacks in the position.
Their need for one will be even greater if their worst fears come true and Tua is injured again.
But General Manager Chris Grier has made it clear their $212m man will start the season as QB.
And the Dolphins exec explained why they opted for Wilson instead of a more experienced back up.
“I think as we were all going through it and we spent a lot of time on that with Mike and the offensive coaches and the scouts,” he said.
“We just felt like Zach had a lot of potential and a lot of talent, and I know you could go the veteran route with someone more proven.
“Zach has won a few games.
“I know everyone is going to say his record and stuff.
“I think for us in dealing with it and getting to know him, talking once he signed and getting to know him and going through it and going back to the relationships people had with him prior to the draft when he came out.
“We just felt that in talking to him and some veterans that he was the right fit and right choice for us.
“We do think that his skill set really fits what our offense does.”
Wilson has a 12-21 record in 33 starts with the New York Jets, who drafted him in 2021.
Tua has missed ten games in the last three seasons, with the majority coming through head injuries.
