Tyler Huntley, filling in for the injured Tua Tagovailoa, led the Miami Dolphins to a 20-3 victory over the Cleveland Browns, keeping their playoff hopes alive. Huntley, who was with the Browns in training camp before being released, completed 22 of 26 passes for 225 yards, achieving an 84% completion rate and a 115.5 passer rating. He threw for one touchdown and rushed for another on a 13-yard run, accumulating 53 rushing yards and committing zero turnovers.

The Browns, led by quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson, dropped to 3-13 and are set to finish their season against the Baltimore Ravens.
