2024 Fantasy Outlook
When White signed with the Dolphins last year, it looked like a good opportunity for a journeyman quarterback. After all, starter Tua Tagovailoa had yet to play more than 13 games in a season because of injuries. So what did Tua do? He started all 17 games for the Dolphins, relegating White to mop-up duty in a handful of games. The 6-5 White has a strong arm and the last two season was on target with 53.3 percent of his 15 attempts of 20-plus yards. But he’s not mobile, rushing 19 times for -1 yard in 14 career games. If Tua doesn’t stay as healthy this year, White would seemingly be in a good spot for passing stats with wideouts Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle in Mike McDaniel’s dynamic offense. Third-string Skylar Thompson is still around, but he didn’t see the field at all last season. Read Past Outlooks

Elevated from practice squad
White has been elevated from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Lions.
ANALYSIS
White is expected to serve as Buffalo's emergency quarterback for Sunday behind Josh Allen and Mitchell Trubisky. He isn't likely to play, though, so his promotion to the active roster might be a way to reward him for his work on the practice squad over the last few weeks.

Despite playing through injuries last season, White emerged as the clear top option in a Jets QB room that also housed Zach Wilson and Joe Flacco, but the arrival of Aaron Rodgers in New York shuttled the 28-year-old to free agency. Enter Miami, where White replaces veteran Teddy Bridgewater as the top backup to Tua Tagovailoa, a franchise option with durability concerns who's yet to play more than 13 games in a single season. White could thrive if he steps into action for the Dolphins, as throwing to Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle in a Mike McDaniel-coached offense would be the best team context of his career.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
QB2 coming down to preseason finale
The competition between White and Skylar Thompson for the backup quarterback spot behind Tua Tagovailoa will likely come down to Miami's preseason finale against the Buccaneers on Friday, per Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
Thompson actually entered Saturday's second preseason game against the Commanders earlier than White, though Thompson threw for just 61 yards in almost two full quarters of action while White piled up 116 passing yards in a quarter and change to close out the game. Thompson has reportedly made a push for the second spot on the quarterback depth chart in training camp, though White is the far more accomplished regular-season quarterback, having surpassed 300 passing yards in three of seven career starts while Thompson has averaged just 121 passing yards in his two starts.
