ProFootballTalk’s Mike Florio reported on September 15 that the 36-year-old is looking for an opportunity to start for the rest of the season.
Right now, such a situation doesn’t clearly exist. The Miami Dolphins have the closest thing to it, as starter Tua Tagovailoa remains on injured reserve with a concussion, but the team expects to see him again this season.
“As far as timelines go, I know he’s not playing this week,” head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters on Monday. “And I do expect to see him playing football in 2024.”
It would be unfair to leave Tannehill off of our list, though, as he’s been the top veteran QB available since the first wave of free agency unfolded. He has 151 starts under his belt and helped the Titans reach the playoffs three times in his five seasons with them.
A return to the Dolphins, who took Tannehill in the first round of the 2012 draft, would make sense if any setbacks keep Tagovailoa off the field for the rest of the year.
The 2019 Pro Bowler should also be the first free-agent call for any playoff hopeful that loses its starter to a season-ending injury.
