Report: Brock Osweiler Will Start vs. Texans, Ryan Tannehill Ruled Out

Brock Osweiler will earn his third-straight start on Thursday per ESPN's Adam Schefter by filling in for Ryan Tannehill as he nurses an injured shoulder. Tannehill hasn't played since a Week 5 loss to the Bengals on Oct. 7.

The Arizona State product has fared in well in Tannehill's absence. He has completed 66% of passes and has thrown for five touchdowns. The Dolphins won Osweiler's first start of 2018 by beating the Bears 31-28 in overtime. Miami lost 32-21 on Sunday against Detroit.

Thursday's contest will have some added intrigue as Osweiler faces the Texans, who he started 14 games for in 2016.
