MIAMI GARDENS (AP) — Idle for most of the past five seasons, backup quarterback Matt Moore came through on the final series Sunday for the Miami Dolphins.
And his work is just beginning.
With Ryan Tannehill sidelined by a knee injury that will likely end his season, the Dolphins turned to Moore, who directed the drive that led to a field goal on the final play to beat the Arizona Cardinals 26-23.
On Saturday at the New York Jets, Moore will likely make his first start since 2011, the year before Tannehill was drafted.
