Tua Tagovailoa Plans Return Amid Concussion Concerns

The Miami Dolphins are struggling without quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who is currently on injured reserve due to a concussion sustained in Week 2. In his absence, the Dolphins' offense has faltered, illustrated by their recent 31-12 loss to the Titans, where wide receiver Tyreek Hill expressed visible frustration on the sidelines. Backup quarterback Tyler Huntley, who has been with the team for less than two weeks, is expected to continue starting despite a lack of chemistry with the receivers. Meanwhile, reports indicate that Tagovailoa has been symptom-free and may return by Week 8, countering calls for him to retire due to his concussion history. The Dolphins face pressure to consider drafting a quarterback in 2025, as Huntley and current backup Skylar Thompson are not seen as long-term solutions. Coach Mike McDaniel emphasized the importance of allowing Tagovailoa time to recover without rushing back to a timeline, prioritizing his health over immediate game needs.
