Titans @ Dolphins Game Overview

Levis will be seeking a repeat performance in the same setting on the same night of the week when the winless Tennessee Titans battle the Dolphins in Miami Gardens, Fla.

Tennessee scored 15 points in 51 seconds last December to turn a 14-point deficit into a stunning 28-27 victory over the Dolphins. Levis, then a rookie, passed for a career-high 327 yards.

"It was a lot of fun," Levis said of the comeback win. "But different team, different season for both of us. Any time you play on Monday night, the whole world is watching, and it gives a little bit of extra excitement, so we've got that. That was a good win for us, and we're just hoping to go get another win down there at a point of the season where we really need one."

The Titans (0-3) haven't looked too stout this season while being outscored 78-48.

The Dolphins (1-2) have different issues after standout quarterback Tua Tagovailoa sustained a concussion in Week 2 against the Buffalo Bills. He is on injured reserve and the earliest he can return is Oct. 27 against the Arizona Cardinals.

Skylar Thompson started last week's 24-3 road loss against the Seattle Seahawks and completed 13 of 19 passes for 107 yards and was sacked five times before exiting with a rib injury in the third quarter. Tim Boyle was 7 of 13 for 79 yards and sacked once as Miami finished with just 205 yards of total offense.

Thompson was still limited in practice Friday and Miami coach Mike McDaniel said Thompson's rib injury is "pretty painful."

On Saturday, McDaniel confirmed that Tyler "Snoop" Huntley will start against the Titans with Boyle serving as the backup. The Dolphins acquired Huntley from Baltimore's practice squad on Sept. 17.

"We targeted him for a reason," McDaniel said Thursday of Huntley, who made 10 starts (including the playoffs) in four seasons with the Ravens. "And it's a player that we're very familiar with from the opponent's standpoint."

Miami ranks last in the NFL with a scoring average of 11 points per game. It hasn't scored a touchdown in its last seven quarters and has been outscored 55-13 during its two-game skid. Star wideout Tyreek Hill has just six catches for 64 yards and no scores in the two setbacks. He didn't practice on Friday, but the Dolphins cited rest as the reason.

Hill said the Dolphins are ready for the spotlight showdown with the Titans no matter who starts at quarterback.

"Very confident. We have a heck of a coaching staff who's able to put together a crazy gameplan," Hill said Friday. "It's going to be a crazy game Monday night."

Hill began watching film of Huntley when he joined the team.

"I seen it. This dude can make every throw," Hill said. "This dude is special with his legs. He's a special talent, man."

The Titans are 28th in scoring (16.0) and 29th in total offense (260.3 yards per game). Levis shares the NFL lead with eight individual turnovers (five interceptions, three lost fumbles). He has thrown four touchdown passes.

Veteran receiver DeAndre Hopkins believes Levis will work through turnover issues.

"I wouldn't want anyone else out there on the field the way he prepares and goes about his day," Hopkins said. "I think he's going to learn from his mistakes. He hasn't even played a full season. It's going to come with time."

Levis is 3-9 as a starter entering Monday's contest.

Tennessee will be without cornerback Chidobe Awuzie (groin) for at least four games after he was placed on injured reserve on Friday. He was hurt in last Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Standout defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons (elbow) missed practice Friday for the second straight day.

For Miami, McDaniel said that left tackle Terron Armstead and cornerback Kendall Fuller both remain in concussion protocol. Linebacker David Long and cornerback Siran Neal missed Thursday's practice with hamstring injuries but Siran returned on a limited basis on Friday.
