The Miami Dolphins brought in quarterback Malik Willis this offense to lead their offense through it's rebuild, and while the 27-year-old hasn't played his best, an injury is now limiting him even more.
Willis has been on the injury report with a groin injury for the last couple of weeks, and it was evident that it was really bothering him on Sunday, as he completed just 52% of his throws for 128 yards and one interception.
The former third-round pick also wasn't able to use his legs like normally does, as he's rushed for just nine yards on three attempts the last two games.
After Sunday's loss Willis spoke about the groin injury.
"It was a little tight," Willis said when asked if the injury was a factor. He doubled down on the same answer when asked how
it affected his play.
On Monday, reporters asked Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley about the injury, but the he said that he hadn't spoken with the medical staff yet to determine if Willis needs to take some time to rest and recover.
If Willis does need to sit, Miami's backup quarterback is Kyle McCord with Brady Cook on the practice squad.
