The Miami Dolphins are placing quarterback Tua Tagovailoa on injured reserve after sustaining a concussion in a hard-fought Week 2 matchup against the Buffalo Bills, according to league sources. Although Tua will miss the next four games, he’s expected to return strong by Week 8, just in time for a key game against the Arizona Cardinals following the team’s Week 6 bye.


While Tua is currently in the league’s concussion protocol, the Dolphins are actively gathering more information and prioritizing his long-term health. Despite this being Tua’s third diagnosed concussion in recent years, Head Coach Mike McDaniel expressed confidence in Tua’s resilience, stating that only Tua himself will determine his future in the game.
