The Miami Dolphins are hosting a pair of 2026 NFL Draft quarterback prospects with one week left until showtime
Just over one week out from the 2026 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins are hosting a pair of quarterback prospects.
The Miami Dolphins‘ quarterback room has already endured massive change this offseason.
Tua Tagovailoa is gone. He’s off to Atlanta, where he’ll serve as competition for Michael Penix Jr. at quarterback. In his place is former Tennessee Titan and Green Bay Packer signal caller Malik Willis. Willis signed a three-year, $67.5 million contract in Miami last month. With the 2026 NFL Draft now on the immediate horizon, one more chance to invest at quarterback faces the Dolphins. With the draft next week, Miami is reportedly hosting a pair of quarterbacks at the team facility.
Miami Dolphins host quarterbacks Jalon Daniels and Mark Gronowski on 30 visits
Reports on Tuesday have Miami holding court with a pair of quarterbacks from the 2026 NFL Draft at their facility this week. Iowa’s Mark Gronowski (via the Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson) and Kansas’ Jalon Daniels (via ESPN’s Jordan Reid). Daniels has been a popular mock draft choice for Miami throughout the course of the spring — he has parallels in his game to what Willis does well and could make sense to add to the quarterback room as a backup. Both quarterbacks were standouts from this year’s East/West Shrine Bowl.
The draft projections on both quarterbacks seem to peak late on Day 3. Miami does hold two picks in the seventh round, making them logical late-round candidates.
That also happens to be where the team secured former Texas Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers last April. It would seem, based on the financial investment in Willis, that the competition in Miami’s quarterback room this offseason will be for the backup spot. But Miami should have every opportunity for both of these signal callers next week. That is, of course, if either leaves a lasting impression on the Miami Dolphins a week ahead of the draft.
