Dolphins worked out pair of free agent QBs on Tuesday

The Miami Dolphins placed quarterback Malik Willis on injured reserve with a groin issue that's been bothering him for the last few weeks, and now they're left with Kyle McCord and Brady Cook as the only quarterbacks in the building.

With Willis forced to miss the next four weeks, the Dolphins are looking for other options to join the room, and on Tuesday, they hosted Bailey Zappe and Austin Reed for workouts.

Zappe, 27, played at Houston Christian from 2017-20 and at Western Kentucky in 2021, where he set FBS records for passing yards and touchdowns in a season. The New England Patriots took him in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, and since then, he's had stints with the Kansas City Chiefs, Cleveland Browns and New York Jets.

In 15 games and nine starts, he led his teams to a 4-5 record and completed 62.1% of hi passes for 2,223 yards with 12 touchdowns and 14 interceptions.

Reed, 26, started his college career at Southern Illinois in 2018 and transferred to West Florida in 2019 and transferred again to Western Kentucky in 2022. He was the NCAA passing yards leader in 2022 and won a Division II championship in 2019.

After going undrafted in 2024, he signed with the Chicago Bears and spent his rookie season and the next offseason with the team. He played for the Dallas Renegades of the UFL this year and led the league with 21 passing touchdowns. He's spent time with the Baltimore Ravens this year as well.

Miami didn't sign either guy, but they could join the roster or practice squad in the coming days.
