Skylar Thompson, the Miami Dolphins' quarterback, suffered a rib injury during a recent game against the Seattle Seahawks. Initially ruled out with a chest injury, it was later clarified that the injury was to his ribs. Coach Mike McDaniel noted that Thompson was in significant pain but attempted to continue playing. If he is unable to return for Week 4 against the Titans, backup options include Tim Boyle and Tyler Huntley, with Boyle having a limited performance in Thompson's absence. Earlier in the season, Thompson was emerging as the second-string quarterback, showing promise in preseason games.

• Thompson's rib injury could impact the Dolphins' quarterback situation moving forward.
• Backup Tim Boyle may have to step in if Thompson is not ready for Week 4.
