The Dolphins fell to the New York Jets, 32-20, giving them the No. 13 pick in the 2025 NFL draft. With the Broncos securing the final spot in the playoffs, there wasn’t anything the Dolphins could have done.

Tyreek Hill could be on his way out of Miami. The star wide receiver appeared to indicate after the Dolphins’ 32-20 loss to the New York Jets on Sunday that he might want to play elsewhere next season.

Miami needed a 52-yard field goal in the final seconds of regulation to force overtime at Hard Rock Stadium, and won the game with a 10-yard touchdown pass from Tua Tagovailoa to Jonnu Smith. To finish the season 9-8, the Dolphins will need Tyler Huntley to get a win at MetLife Stadium.

The Dolphins' hopes for the AFC's final wild-card spot rest on beating the Jets and hoping the Chiefs beat the Broncos in Denver.

The Dolphins are trying to make the playoffs as an AFC wild-card team for a third consecutive season under Mike McDaniel.

The Miami Dolphins are doing their part, but they aren't getting help from their friends out West. The Dolphins came into Sunday needing a lot of factors to fall in their favor to make the postseason.
