MIAMI — Rookie Skylar Thompson will officially make his third career start for the Miami Dolphins during Sunday’s wild-card playoff game against the Buffalo Bills.<\/p>\n
Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel confirmed the news during his news conference Friday, adding that veteran Teddy Bridgewater had worked tirelessly to make himself available in a backup role come Sunday.<\/p>\n
Starter Tua Tagovailoa remains in the concussion protocol after suffering his second concussion of the season in the game against the Green Bay Packers on Dec. 25. Bridgewater dislocated the pinkie finger on his throwing hand the following week, paving the way for Thompson to start the team’s regular-season finale against the New York Jets prior to Sunday’s game against the Bills.<\/p>\n
