DAVIE – Ryan Tannehill is enjoying his freedom.
Coach Adam Gase has given
the Dolphins’ fifth-year quarterback the green light to audible at the line of scrimmage and calls is “a great feeling.”
“We have a big toolbox,” Tannehill said following Tuesday’s practice. “Coach Gase allows me to get up there and equips me with plays that we can change at the line and get into a good look. It’s a great feeling to have and it’s going to help us throughout the year.”
Tannehill, who is entering his fifth season, said he has started calling audibles “a few times” each practice period.
“Whether it’s an alert we have or a small adjustment,” Tannehill said. “Not too often are we going to just scratch everything that we have called and go to something else. We’ll definitely make adjustments and change maybe the side, inside outside, or protection or route concept.
“I’m excited. It feels good. It’s exciting for us as an offense. It’s going to help us throughout the year, put ourselves in a good position to make plays.”
