McDaniel also announced that veteran wide receiver Odell Beckham, who began the season the physically unable to perform list, will have his 21-day practice window opened this week.
Huntley went 14-of-22 passing for 96 yards with an additional 40 yards and a touchdown on the ground in Miami’s disheartening 31-12 loss at Hard Rock Stadium during which fans booed the home team’s product.
Huntley started Monday in place of Skylar Thompson, who started Week 3’s loss to the Seattle Seahawks but left early after suffering a rib injury. Thompson nor Huntley have been able to replicate Tagovailoa’s production this season, and McDaniel was asked on Tuesday if his offense was overly dependent on Tagovailoa’s skillset.
“When you have adjustments to the lineup, people have to step up … we’re not getting that right now,” McDaniel said, per ESPN. “The bottom line is that it’s definitely not one person.”
McDaniel told reporters that he believes the answers to the Dolphins’ issues are in-house and that there are “very concrete, direct conversations that need to be had” within the organization.
“The bottom line is to play winning football, you have to have 11 people executing their jobs in a tied together fashion and it’s not happening,” McDaniel said.
