Miami’s rookie-heavy plan is real: as many as four newcomers could start Week 1 and seven may contribute on opening day. Ollie Gordon II flashed in the final preseason, taking advantage of injuries to De’Von Achane and Jaylen Wright and piling up 126 yards on 26 attempts while also delivering solid pass protection against blitzes. Kenneth Grant, Jonah Savaiinaea, and Jason Marshall Jr. are being asked to contribute early, with Quinn Ewers pushing for more opportunities behind Tua Tagovailoa. It’s Dolphins 101 all August: stack good days, develop the young core, and hope the class delivers.
