With Pennington out, Miami Dolphins trade for Thigpen MIAMI - Chad Pennington's season officially ended with a trade that didn't involve him. ,, The Miami Dolphins placed Pennington on the reserve-injured list to create aroster spot for quarterback Tyler Thigpen, who was acquired Tuesday from the Kansas City Chiefs for an undisclosed draft pick. Pennington hurt his right shoulder Sunday at San Diego, an injury that ., leaves his career in jeopardy. At 33, he likely faces athird operation on the shoulder since 2005. Thigpen sho1 es up depth behind second-year pro Chad Henne, who is expected to make his first NFL start Sunday against Buffalo. Rookie Pat White is the Dolphins' other quarterback. Thigpen, athird-year pro, went 1-10 as astarter for the woeful Chiefs last year and threw for 2,608 yards with 18 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. Kansas City acquired Matt Cassel in the offseason, and Thigpen lost a battle this year with Brodie Croyle for the No. 2 CFF ARCHIVE ,, job. UCF wide receiver AJ. Guyton caught a team-high nine passes for 119 yards against East Carolina on Saturday. It was his best game since 2007 after sitting out all of last season with a injury in pre season. Thigpen is excited about the move to Miami, said his agent, Joel Turner, even though the Dolphins are 0-3 "It's not like that team is short on Against Memphis, UCF . talent - they won the division last Hodges year;'Turner said.
