The Splash Zone 12/4/19: The “Intern” Introduces Himself

Welcome to the Splash Zone, the quickest way to get your day started off right. We bring you a rundown of Miami Dolphins news from the last 24 hours.

Besides Dolphin fans, no one knew who Patrick Laird was. Heck, people at the Dolphins facility assumed he was working as intern, which is where he got his nickname “The Intern”. On Sunday with Kalen Ballage injured, Laird and Myles Gaskin had to step up with both of them having their own moments during the game. But none were as significant as Laird’s touchdown run near the goal line and his catch to convert for the two point conversion. With Ballage’s status up in the air, Laird could end up being the Dolphins starting running back the rest of the season and splitting time with Gaskin.

You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day’s round-up below.
