The Miami Dolphins have taken a significant step regarding quarterback Tua Tagovailoa’s recovery from his latest concussion. With no clear timeline for his return, the team has placed Tagovailoa on injured reserve.
This move will keep Tagovailoa sidelined for at least four games, ensuring his absence from the lineup for the foreseeable future. The Dolphins are prioritizing caution, allowing their quarterback ample time to recover from the concussion.

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo, Tagovailoa’s earliest potential return date is Week 8, when the Dolphins face the Arizona Cardinals. This timeline provides clarity on the minimum duration of his absence.
The Dolphins will now rely on their backup quarterback to lead the team through this critical stretch. With Tagovailoa’s health being the primary concern, the team will closely monitor his progress before considering his return to action.
