What happened: Week 13 of the 2022 season swung when a rookie seventh-round backup quarterback entered against Miami and launched a run that reshaped that year. Sunday's Dolphins-49ers game brings that reference point back into view in the late national window.
Why it matters: The historical tie-in lands with Miami already shorthanded in key spots, including Chop Robinson out against the 49ers. That shifts more edge work to Josh Uche and Robert Beal Jr. in a matchup that will test the Dolphins' pass-rush depth.
By the numbers: Robinson logged three pressures in Week 1. Kyle Louis also went on injured reserve this week, a move that sidelines him for at least four games.
What to watch: Watch how Miami handles its edge rotation Sunday after the Robinson and Louis absences reshuffled snaps. The late-afternoon slot will put extra attention on whether that group can hold up over a full game.
