PLAYERS: Ryan Tannehill,  Matt Moore,  Reggie Bush
TEAMS: Miami Dolphins
After reading Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald three main points came to mind regarding Ryan Tannehill and his chances of being the quarterback this season.

Reggie Bush on Ryan Tannehill: “Ryan can watch the veterans and learn”

Via 60 Max Power O  |  July 08, 2012

Dolphins RB Reggie Bush Says Rookie QB Ryan Tannehill Will Likely Be No. 3

Via GridironFans.com  |  July 08, 2012
The safe assumption is that veteran quarterbacks David Garrard and Matt Moore will battle for the Miami Dolphins' starting job, while first-round draft pick Ryan Tannehill -- who had just 19 starts at quarterback at Texas A&M-- sits, watches and learns. At least that's what Dolphins running back Reggie Bush expects to happen. "I would probably agree with you on that...

Via This Given Sunday  |  July 07, 2012
