The Miami Dolphins benched quarterback Tua Tagovailoa at the end of the 2025 season and replaced him with Quinn Ewers after the former first-round pick led the team to a 6-8 record and completed 67.7% of his passes for 2,660 yards, 20 touchdowns and a career-high 15 interceptions.
Now, it appears that the Dolphins are looking to find a new starter at the position this offseason and their first opportunity to do that will be in free agency when the new league year opens.
There are plenty of intriguing options hitting the market this year from a four-time NFL MVP to a first-round bust that Miami actually got picks for to allow another team to draft him.
Before the new league year starts, let’s take a look at all of the quarterbacks that will be free agents in a couple of weeks and identify what type of free agent they’ll be.
