Skylar Thompson’s biggest supporter was anticipating his first start of the season in Seattle.
Ahead of kickoff Sunday between the Dolphins and Seahawks, Bre Newcomer — who is engaged to Miami’s new QB1 — posted an Instagram snap from Lumen Field, where the former seventh-round pick will be under center as starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is currently sidelined following a scary concussion in Week 2.
Newcomer also shared a photo of Thompson, 27, warming up on her Instagram Stories.
The couple announced their engagement in March.
Thompson was drafted by the Dolphins with the 247th pick in 2022 and started two games that year, along with a playoff contest.
He relieved an injured Tagovailoa on Sept. 12 when the former first-round pick suffered his fourth documented concussion in a 31-10 loss to the Bills.
Tagovailoa, 26, was placed on injured reserve this week and has “no plans” to retire.
The former Alabama star is on the sideline Sunday.
Leading up to the game, Thompson spoke about what the opportunity on the road means to him.
