Dolphins Tua Tagovailoa going to IR, will miss at least 4 games.
The dolphins franchise QB Tua Tagovailoa has been placed on injured reserve after his latest concussion. Tua has had a history of concussions, with the latest coming against Green Bay in 2022 ending his campaign. He suffered one of the more disturbing visible brain injuries of recent memory on national TV against the Bengals on Thursday night football earlier in the 2022 season. Hopefully this time away from football allows him to heal and make the best decision for his longevity as a human being.
Tua was not known for his mobility, but was injured on a scramble up the middle. Prior to the injury, Tua had thrown 3 interceptions, including one pick six. It remains unclear what the timetable is for his return, but from a fantasy perspective we are forced to downgrade all pass catchers. The only player that may remain unaffected is Devon Achane. In Tua’s absence, Skylar Thompson is expected to start for the Dolphins.
