08:06 AM ET 08.03 | Not only is Ryan Tannehill playing for his own future, but his success may also be yoked to the futures of David Garrard and Matt Moore. While all three quarterbacks will be given a chance to win the job, it's not a given that all three quarterbacks will be on the roster for Week 1. While the likeliest scenario has Tannehill serving in the No. 3 role this year, a league source with knowledge of the Dolphins' front office said the Dolphins have considered every contingency at quarterback, and one of them is carrying Tannehill as the No. 2 quarterback if he plays well enough in the preseason and proves that he could handle himself this year if called upon to play. If Tannehill does play well, it could make either Moore or Garrard expendable.

I am sure one of them can get a backup job quickly if/when they are cut.

Not as bad as Seattle, I think. Sign a guy in free agency then spend a pretty high round pick on another QB.

the common denominator is they are both playing for last place.

Sad thing is either of them could win the backup job in Atlanta

So does this mean, they're sticking with the Wildcat since they won't have a QB this season?

Seattle basically hit the offseason without a QB. They needed a few pieces. Not saying what they did isn't questionable but maybe Flynn is the guy and they can either develop Wilson enough to have some good trade value. Both have some upside and a lot of ??? but when you have nothing, it may be better to take the John Gruden approach and start collecting.
