Miami Dolphins' Kyle McCord says 'I'm feeling good' before first start
Miami Dolphins' Kyle McCord will make his first NFL start at the Indianapolis Colts. He says he's the "ultimate competitor."
MIAMI GARDENS — Miami Dolphins quarterback Kyle McCord radiated confidence during his first news conference, as he prepares to make his NFL debut against Indianapolis in Week 10. McCord, who has been promoted to the starting role on a short-term basis, is scheduled to start at least four consecutive games while Malik Willis is sidelined with a core injury.
McCord emphasized the importance of preparation and experience in building confidence, noting that his time at Ohio State and Syracuse has prepared him for the pressure of playing in big games. Despite being acquired from Green Bay for a low draft pick, McCord remains optimistic about his chances, crediting his hard work and mental preparation for his success.
The Dolphins' coaching staff and former teammates have praised McCord's competitive spirit and quick decision-making skills, which they believe will serve him well in his first professional start.
