Miami Dolphins quarterback Matt Moore isn't getting any reps with the first team at practice this week, according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald. Some thought Moore might see some action with the starters given that head coach Joe Philbin neglected to name Ryan Tannehill the starting quarterback going forward. Philbin said that the Dolphins planned on utilizing the 46 best players he could put on the field.
Matt Moore not getting first-team reps, Ryan Tannehill still worth the fantasy start for now
Matt Moore isn’t getting any reps with the first team, so Ryan Tannehill’s job is safe for another week, at least.

Tannehill has been struggling big-time over the past two games. He completed 31 of 49 passes for 241 yards with one touchdown and once interception against the Buffalo Bills in Week 2, and didn't fare much better against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3. That's despite having players like Mike Wallace and Knowshon Moreno to assist him. Miami is 1-2 with Tannehill at quarterback.
Fantasy Impact: Tannehill was a popular fantasy option this year, alongside Wallace and Moreno. Unfortunately, Tannehill just hasn’t looked as solid as expected. He’s the team’s so-called franchise quarterback, but three weeks into the season there’s already talk about Moore, who doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence himself. Fantasy owners should stick with Tannehill for the time being in hopes that he rights the ship.
