Miami Dolphins retain Malik Willis as starting quarterback for Week 7

The Miami Dolphins will keep Malik Willis as their starting quarterback despite recent struggles. Following a bye week, head coach Jeff Hafley confirmed he has no plans to bench Willis in favor of Kyle McCord. Willis faced criticism after a game against the Cincinnati Bengals in which he recorded three turnovers. Hafley expressed confidence in Willis and the team's ability to improve before their upcoming matchup against the New York Jets. Miami's running game showed promise last week, rushing for 200 yards.
