The Miami Dolphins are coming off a bye week and continuing their 14-day preparation for their game against the Indianapolis Colts. With quarterback Tua Tagovailoa on the mend, Miami is expanding its playbook to send the ball to playmakers Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and De’Von Achane. However, offensive coordinator Frank Smith believes the offense must build plays for its three stars and a journeyman tight end in his seventh NFL season.

Smith, the offensive play-caller for the Miami Dolphins since 2022, spoke to the media on Thursday, sharing his intent to get tight end Jonnu Smith more involved with the offense going forward. Last season, Miami led the league in offensive yards while finishing second in points scored. Despite Frank Smith’s resume, fans are irate with his handling of the offense sans Tagovailoa.

Per offensive coordinator Frank Smith, the Miami Dolphins will attempt to get more production from tight end Jonnu Smith. However, he will need to do so without starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. The starting signal-caller remains on the mend as he recovers from a concussion, with Miami slated to start Tyler Huntley on Sunday. The 26-year-old has struggled in limited action, failing to throw a touchdown in his two games.
