I think that he's likely played his last game as a Dolphin, and justifiably so.

Before, I figured that he'd be worth keeping around as either a backup, or if you wanted to groom a new QB (not start him in year 1), Henne could be your starter.  Even if you wanted to bring in a veteran, he could compete for the job.

But, now with an injury, you're having to deal with rehab and bringing him back slowly.  I just don't think that's something I want to deal with.  On top of that, he's a free agent.  You're almost starting from zero, with a likely new coach and GM.  ...might as well start with a new player, too.

Thanks, Henne.  It's been real.

I think it's his last game as a Fin because next year a new coach will be at the helm and he's going to want his own guy leading the team.  Slight chance he will be back as a backup becuase its doubtful any other team will sign him, depends what the new coach thinks of him.

Realistically, he's probably done in Miami because the way things are going, next year's QB will likely be named Andrew Luck or Landry Jones.  I don't think the Dolphins would bring back the incumbent under such a scenario, and I don't think Henne would be down with competing with a rookie only to (probably) lose his job 4 games into the season when the coaching staff deemed the new kid ready.
