Alec Ingold rushed for a go-ahead 3-yard touchdown with 4:24 remaining to lift the Miami Dolphins to a 15-10 win over the New England Patriots on Sunday afternoon in Foxborough, Mass.
Miami (2-3) couldn't cash in on a two-point conversion after Ingold scored, but it didn't matter, as New England failed to find the end zone on its ensuing drive.
It looked like Jacoby Brissett threw a 12-yard touchdown pass with 1:03 to go, but Ja'Lynn Polk failed to get both feet down in bounds. The Patriots (1-4) then came up empty on a fourth-and-15.
New England ended up getting the ball back with 29 seconds left and worked down to the Miami 11, but the clock hit zeros as the offense was trying to scramble back to the line of scrimmage.
Jaylen Wright racked up 86 yards on 13 carries for the Dolphins, who totaled 193 rushing yards as a team. Wright took on a larger role in the backfield after the Dolphins lost De'Von Achane to a concussion in the first quarter.
Tyler Huntley completed 18 of 31 passes for 194 yards. He was picked off once. Tyreek Hill hauled in six catches for 69 yards.
Brissett finished with 160 yards on 18-of-34 passing. Rhamondre Stevenson collected 89 yards and a TD on 12 carries.
Joey Slye's 38-yard field goal gave New England a 10-3 edge with 11:01 remaining in the third quarter. Jason Sanders answered with a pair of field goals -- from 32 and 47 yards out -- to make it a one-point game entering the fourth.
Sanders provided Miami with its first lead of the season in the first quarter when he capped the game's opening drive with a 54-yard field goal.
New England later made the most of a Christian Gonzalez interception that set it up at the Dolphins 43. Four plays after the pick, Stevenson rushed for a 33-yard touchdown to put the Patriots ahead 7-3 with 3:55 left in the first quarter.
Points were nowhere to be found for the remainder of the first half, mainly due to the struggles of both sides' special teams units.
Miami had a punt blocked, botched a snap on a field-goal attempt and watched Sanders miss a 41-yarder. Slye also missed the mark, pushing a 33-yard field-goal attempt wide right.
