Another week, another injury for a Miami Dolphins quarterback.
Skylar Thompson left Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings with a thumb injury, leading to the return of Teddy Bridgewater. The Dolphins announced that. Bridgewater missed practice this week in concussion protocol, but was activated on Sunday prior to kickoff.
Thompson's injury marks the fourth straight week that a Dolphins quarterback has left the field with an injury. Starter Tua Tagovailoa left in Week 3 against the Buffalo Bills with what the Dolphins initially announced with a head injury. He returned and finished the game before being sidelined and hospitalized with concussion against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 4.
Bridgewater took over for Miami against the Bengals. He was then sidelined with a concussion in Week 5 against the New York Jets. That led to the NFL debut of third-string quarterback Thompson, a seventh-round rookie out of Kansas State. He threw for 166 yards with an interception in a 40-17 loss to the New York Jets.
Bridgewater was active for Sunday's game, but didn't start because he spent the week in concussion protocol and didn't practice.
