With just over six minutes left in the first half, the Miami Dolphins trailed the Buffalo Bills 17-3. However, interceptions by Xavien Howard and Jevon Holland, and a long punt return by Cedrick Wilson Jr. later, Miami had a chance to score and tie the game up.
Rookie quarterback Skylar Thompson looked off the safety before firing a pass into tight end Mike Gesicki. Gesicki did his patented griddy celebration before Thompson hit wide receiver Tyreek Hill for a successful two-point conversion, knotting the game at 17-17.

Buffalo was able to drive down a kick a field goal before the end of the half, but Thompson and company are in a good position for the second half.
