It May Be A Little Early But...

Chad Henne worked with Miami's starters today and the Dolphins coaches say it is a true QB race. They do not give an edge to him, 2006 2nd roudner John Beck, or journeyman Josh McCown. Henne played with the 1st team for the first time in his career, coming after a day in which he was third string but performed the best of all the QBs. It is way too early to declare who the QB will be for the 2008 season but as I pointed out on May 2nd, Chad Henne will not be overlooked. And the staff knows this. Unfortunately some of the fans seem to believe Henne has no shot at starting this year. Chad is a fighter and could easily win the job. I'm pulling for him.

Here is an excerpt taken from the article written by Harvey Fialkov of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel...

For those assuming that the Dolphins quarterback competition was a two-man duel between John Beck and veteran Josh McCown, think again, said coach Tony Sparano.

Sparano made it clear that rookie quarterback Chad Henne is in the mix after watching him take snaps with the first team in the first of two practices Saturday morning.

Excellent.
