Tua Tagovailoa Anticipated to Return: Miami Dolphins Quarterback Aims for Comeback Against Arizona Cardinals

Saturday, October 19th, 2024

The Miami Dolphins anticipate that Tua Tagovailoa will return to practice in the coming week, with a possible appearance against the Arizona Cardinals scheduled for October 27th.

Currently, he is still undergoing the concussion protocol and needs to adhere to the NFL's return-to-play guidelines to be cleared for eligibility.

In spite of his recent concussion, Tagovailoa still plans to keep playing football, even with the existing concerns regarding his history of injuries.

He has sought advice from neurologists and gathered insights to help him make a well-informed decision about the path ahead in his career.

Following two concussions in 2022 and a third impact that led the NFL to amend its concussion reporting rules, Tagovailoa was benched for the rest of the last season.

In his absence, the Dolphins have been using Skylar Thompson and Tyler Huntley as starters, with Huntley currently taking the lead role.

Coach Mike McDaniel intends to keep Huntley as the starting quarterback until Tagovailoa is ready to return, with the team keeping a close watch on his progress.

While recovering, Tagovailoa has continued to engage in team meetings and other related activities.
