Rookie Quinn Ewers threw two touchdown passes to fuel the visiting Miami Dolphins to a 24-17 preseason victory over the Detroit Lions on Saturday. Ewers, a seventh-round pick out of Texas, completed 11 of 17 passes for 116 yards and tossed 15- and 8-yard scoring strikes to Theo Wease Jr.

Two drives later, the Lions responded. Although the Dolphins bottled up the run, key catches from receivers Isaac TeSlaa and Jackson Meeks, the latter of whom hauled in the 11-yard touchdown, allowed the Lions to tie up the game.

While rookie quarterbacks like Shedeur Sanders and Cam Ward had memorable preseason debuts this weekend, Miami Dolphins first-year signal-caller Quinn Ewers had one to forget.
