Quarterback Zach Wilson isn’t in line for a starting job in Miami, but he is set to move up a rung on the depth chart from last season.
Wilson was the No. 3 quarterback behind Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham in Denver last year and he’s now on track to be the No. 2 quarterback behind Tua Tagovailoa in Miami. Given Tagovailoa’s injury history, Wilson would seem to have a decent shot at playing time during the 2025 season and he said [on a team podcast](https://www.miamidolphins.com/podcasts/drive-time-alexander-mattison-zach-wilson-interviews-and-analysis-on-pharaoh-brown-ryan-stonehouse) that he thinks he’ll be able to plug right in if his number is called.
“I think it’s going to be [a great fit](https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/nfl/miami-dolphins/article302363314.html) with what I’m looking for, the type of offense, the amount of information I’ll be able to learn from these guys,” Wilson said, via Barry Jackson of the _Miami Herald_. “I think it couldn’t have been a better match.”
The Dolphins would prefer that Wilson’s fit in the offense remain a theoretical one, but if the moment comes it will give Wilson a chance to show that he can still have a future in the NFL despite his disastrous run as a starter with the Jets.
