Meanwhile, the Miami Dolphins faced a rocky start to the season after Tua Tagovailoa suffered a concussion early on. With the team struggling to gain momentum and Tyreek Hill underperforming, many fans assumed Miami was destined for another disappointing year. However, the Dolphins have flipped the script in recent weeks, emerging as one of the league's most formidable teams. They now face a major test against the Texans, another playoff contender.
