Brock Osweiler will start at QB for Dolphins on short week

Miami Dolphins coach Adam Gase said Monday that Brock Osweiler will start at quarterback Thursday at Houston, and Ryan Tannehill will miss his third game. Tannehill is dealing with a shoulder injury that has prevented him from throwing.

Gase said Tannehill is in a "good spot" and the Dolphins (4-3) plan for him to throw this week; he added that there's no guarantee it would be a real football, and it could be a Nerf football.

Fantasy Impact: 

The team doesn't think Tannehill will need surgery, the story said, and will return as the starter when he's ready. For this week, Osweiler will be without the services of WRs Kenny Stills and Albert Wilson, which are two huge losses.
