NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora reports that free agent quarterback David Garrard has scheduled a visit with the Miami Dolphins.

Garrard is 34 years old and would be no more than a short-term solution for Miami’s quarterback woes. Ideally, he wouldn’t be a candidate to start.

Garrard expects to be active this week in terms of making the free agent rounds, so he’ll likely visit more than one team before signing. At this point in time, the Dolphins would be one of his better landing spots for playing-time opportunity, though that could change quickly if the team signed Matt Flynn or Alex Smith.

Flynn was at Dolphins headquarters on Saturday. Smith is there on Sunday.

Garrard’s visit will take place on Monday.
