The Miami Dolphins are reportedly interested in trading for Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph. As the Dolphins prepare for the 2026 season, starting quarterback Malik Willis shines while backup options falter, leading to speculation about acquiring Rudolph. Quinn Ewers struggled in the preseason opener against the Washington Commanders, and his recent groin injury worsens the situation.
