Quarterback Rank: #94
Overall: #567
Pennington found his way back in the starting lineup last season, but lasted just a couple plays. He was 1-of-2 for two yards before injuring his throwing shoulder. He has endured several injuries to this shoulder, which is a huge concern. And to make matters worse, Pennington tore his ACL during the offseason during a pick-up basketball game. Pennington isn't likely playing this season after his latest injury. At this point, his career looks to be about over. Pennington didn't have a strong arm to begin with, so all the injuries to his arm have take a toll. When healthy and on his game, Pennington is one of the most accurate passers in the game. He has completed 66 percent of his passes for his career. Pennington knows his limitations and makes the most of his ability. He reads defenses well and fits the ball in tight spaces. If healthy, Pennington can help as a backup, but his health is a huge concern right now.

| Miami Dolphins QB Chad Pennington (shoulder), who is set to become a free agent during the offseason, said he has accepted the possibility of signing with another team, reports The Associated Press. He also realizes no team may be interested in him, which he is OK with. The Dolphins may be inclined to re-sign him, as he has ties to Brian Daboll, who is expected to be signed as the team's offensive coordinator. Pennington, who is trying to return from a fourth surgery on his throwing shoulder, said his recovery will be a daily and weekly process and there may be a point his body simply cannot go on any further with rehab. He noted he still has the desire and passion to play, so he has to see what his options are provided his body is able to hold up physically. |
| Fantasy Impact: We doubt he comes back, but you never know. |
