Tyreek Hill’s first touchdown since Week 1 gives Miami a 17-6 lead

The Dolphins returned to the end zone for the first time since their opener.

Tua Tagovailoa threw a 1-yard touchdown to Tyreek Hill to make the score 17-6 for Miami.

After getting the ball to their 47-yard line after a missed field goal, the Dolphins only needed six plays to get to the paint. Tight end Jonnu Smith made the big play, catching a short pass over the middle before bouncing off defenders and staying on his feet all the way to the 1-yard line.

On the next play, Tagovailoa found Hill for the score. It was Hill’s first touchdown since Week 1.

The Rams should have gone for three points to open the second half, but a false start before a 52-yard field goal pushed the attempt back 5 yards. Joshua Karty missed the goal from this distance on the right and kept the score at 10:6. Los Angeles had been on the field with the running game, but a high shotgun shot wiped out the possession and forced the offense into a corner.

Dolphins cornerback Kendall Fuller went down early in the third quarter and is out with a concussion. Cam Smith came in to replace him

Additionally, it is questionable whether Dolphins left guard Robert Jones will return due to a knee injury. Lester Cotton replaced him.
