Rookie Malik Washington shines, Skylar Thompson the more productive QB in preseason finale
What stood out during the Miami Dolphins' 24-14 loss against the Tampa Bay Buccaneeers in their preseason finale at Raymond James Stadium on Friday night:
Among all those not playing were QB Tua Tagovailoa, WR Tyreek Hill, and every other starter. Also not playing were WR Erik Ezukanma and rookie DB Patrick McMorris, both spotted wearing a boot before the game as the result of injuries sustained in the joint practice Wednesday.The Dolphins started on defense and the lineup included Chop Robinson, Ethan Bonner and Siran Neal at cornerback, and Channing Tindall at linebacker.
It would be the first of many good plays for Washington, who easily was the star of the first half for Miami. The biggest offensive play came from Washington on a 40-yard run on an end-around when he showed tremendous vision in the open field. • Skylar Thompson took over at quarterback to finish the first half and put together a good drive, though it featured yet another injury at wide receiver when Anthony Schwartz stayed down holding a knee after catching a 17-yard pass.
• When the Dolphins went on defense for the first time in the half, Perry had another good play with tight coverage on a third-down incompletion.
