Dolphins' Fitzpatrick to remain starter vs. Bills
It's not Tua Time in Miami just yet.
Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said Monday that quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick will remain the starter for the team's Week 2 matchup against the Buffalo Bills, according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald.
Fans were calling for the Dolphins to make the switch to rookie Tua Tagovailoa after Miami lost its opening game Sunday to the New England Patriots.
Fitzpatrick's turnover issues were arguably the biggest reason for the Dolphins' 21-11 loss. He threw three interceptions - two of which came in the first half - and failed to find the end zone.
Tagovailoa, the No. 5 overall pick in this year's draft, received a clean bill of health during training camp following a hip injury that ended his final campaign at Alabama.
The rookie acted as Fitzpatrick's backup in Week 1.
