The Dolphins are already looking for insurance in the event that Ryan Tannehill has to miss games. The team reached out to former Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, according to Armando Salguero of The Miami Herald. 
After finding a tepid market this spring, Cutler retired from football and joined the NFL on FOX’s broadcast team. He indicated that he was most likely done playing, but he could maybe be persuaded to return if he can jump in with a potential playoff team like the Dolphins.
Of course, Cutler and coach Adam Gase have some shared history. Gase was Cutler’s offensive coordinator in 2015 when the QB threw 25 touchdowns against 11 interceptions. It turns out Gase personally reached out to Cutler shortly after Tannehill suffered his injury.
Coach Adam Gase has been in contact with Cutler personally the pasty two days as the two men have worked on rekindling a relationship that helped Cutler throw 25 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in 2015 when he was the starting QB for Chicago and Gase was the offensive coordinator
The Dolphins have reached out to “multiple” QBs, according to Salguero, but Cutler is the most prominent one of the bunch so far. That probably means that Colin Kaepernick has not been contacted. Other noteworthy available QBs include Robert Griffin III, Christian Ponder, and Shaun Hill.
Now that Cutler is in play for Miami, one has to wonder if the Dolphins might also try and lure CBS broadcaster Tony Romo out of retirement.
Romo not coming back unless Dak has big injury so that’s no a option
Matt Moore is a better option. Is he still on their roster?
Matt Moore could handle 2-4 games not a whole season
Uncle Rico available?
Jay would be great in Miami, had his best year with Gase, has better weapons than he ever had in Chicago, and it would be great to see him stick it to all the Bears fans who blamed everything on him when in reality the entire Bears organization has been the epitome of ineptitude.
Better weapons than Alshon Jeffrey, Brandon Marshall, Matt Forte, and Marcellus Bennett? I mean the dolphins have really good receivers and a good young RB but let’s be serious. Those are 4 pro bowl players
Cutler is the Fins best option, no one else is really close. Moore has proven himself to be a capable backup, nothing more. The other guys, barring a trade, have never really had any sustained success. Couple that with his familiarity with Gase and it’s a no brainer.
