Tua Tagovailoa Set to Return for Dolphins in Week 7

Saturday morning brought some good news to the Dolphins, as the team’s top two quarterbacks—starter Tua Tagovailoa and backup Teddy Bridgewater—both reportedly cleared concussion protocol, according to Alain Poupart of All Dolphins. 

After the controversy surrounding his quick return from injury against the Bills, and the concussion he suffered just days later against the Bengals, the team appears to be taking things more cautiously with Tagovailoa this go-around. Even with the update to his status on Saturday, he will not play against the Vikings on Sunday. Skylar Thompson, the team’s QB3, will get the start with Bridgewater set to back him up, given the short week of rest.

Expectations are that Tagovailoa will be ready to start in Week 7 against the Steelers, if all continues to go well.
