Dolphins news: Jonah Savaiinaea’s improvement, Vikings game grades

Miami Dolphins guard Jonah Savaiinaea has shown significant progress this season, moving from a sack-prone performance in 2025 to a standout start in 2026. Despite speculation that his shift from left guard to his natural right-side position contributed to his improvement, Savaiinaea credits his growth to increased game experience, refined technique, and guidance from offensive line coach Zach Yenser.

The 2025 second-round pick has eliminated his biggest weakness—allowing sacks—after leading all guards in that category last year, a marked contrast to his current season where he has yet to be sacked. Meanwhile, the Dolphins’ Week 4 loss to the Vikings highlighted ongoing struggles, with mixed performances failing to deliver a win for the winless team so far this year.
