The Dolphins struggled offensively in their 31-12 loss to the Titans on Monday night. Making his first start at quarterback for the team, Tyler Huntley completed 14 of 22 passes for 96 yards.

He was also the team’s leading rusher with 40 yards and scored a touchdown with 3:36 remaining in the fourth quarter. Miami managed only 184 total yards, 13 first downs, and went 2 for 12 on third down.

Receiver Jaylen Waddle, who led the team with four catches for 36 yards, expressed disappointment about the offense’s performance after the game.

“Playmakers got to be playmakers. We have to be better than good when your starting quarterback is out,” Waddle said, according to Said Dean of USA TODAY. “We have to be extra open to clear it up for the quarterback. He’s new here. We just have to go out and make plays for him.”

With a record of 1-3, the Dolphins will aim to break their three-game losing streak when they face the Patriots on the road in Week 5.
