Malik Willis has struggled through five games with the Miami Dolphins. Here are eight changes he must make to turn his season around and secure his future.

Noah Clark outlines eight key areas where Miami Dolphins quarterback Malik Willis must improve following the team's 0-5 start to the 2026 season. Clark argues that Willis needs to reduce turnovers, improve passing accuracy, make quicker pocket decisions, and demonstrate leadership to secure his role as the franchise's long-term quarterback.
Head coach Jeff Hafley reaffirmed Willis as the starter over backup Kyle McCord coming out of the bye week ahead of a matchup against the New York Jets. Clark notes that Willis must show consistent execution, build chemistry with receivers, and convert athletic flashes into victories to prevent Miami from seeking alternatives.
