Dolphins Make a Splash Signing Jacoby Brissett to a One-Year Deal

Quarterbacks are flying off the market on the second day of free agency, and the Miami Dolphins finally made a splash. After losing Fitzmagic to the Washington Football Team on Monday night, the Dolphins secured a solid backup QB in Jacoby Brissett from the Indianapolis Colts.

This move will provide some real competition at the QB1 making both players better. Hopefully, Tua can learn from Jacoby, a West Palm Beach native, who will be entering his 5th year in the NFL. Jacoby has been in some great quarterback rooms with Tom Brady, Phillip Rivers, and Andrew Luck. He also knows the New England offense that seems to be ramping back up this offseason.

When given the chance to start, Jacoby Brissett had the Indianapolis Colts headed in the right direction, but then got hurt. They went on to draft Jacob Eason and signed Phillip Rivers pushing Jacoby to free-agency.

I know Dolfans everywhere want to land a bigger fish, but these are the foundations that need to be laid for a young team and a young franchise quarterback. We should be lucky that Brissett is willing to come home, be a backup, and help Tua and the Dolphins succeed.

I love this signing, which may be an unpopular take. This makes our team better, and grittier. Now, let’s hope he helps bring TY Hilton home to Miami.

Trust the process!
