Sports Seriously
The Miami Dolphins have had to battle through injuries to their star quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa, all season long, and another potential injury could have him miss his fifth game of the season.
Tagovailoa’s status for today’s game against the Cleveland Browns has been determined. Speculation has run rampant about the quarterback’s hip injury and we have an official update.
Miami enters the Week 17 matchup with a 7-8 record, behind the Colts and Bengals in the playoff hunt. They are battling to stay in the race for the final wild-card spot, which is an important factor in the decision regarding Tagovailoa today.
Here’s the latest on Tua before Sunday’s kickoff against the Browns.
Tagovailoa is inactive for today’s game.
According to their latest injury report, the Dolphins downgraded Tagovailoa’s Week 17 status to “doubtful” as the quarterback deals with a hip injury.
He had been a limited participant in practice all week before Miami downgraded him to doubtful for Sunday’s clash with the Browns. He had previously held a questionable designation before Saturday’s downgrade.
According to CBS’s Tracy Wolfson, Tagovailoa played through a hip injury last week against the San Francisco 49ers, but he seemed to have aggravated the issue in the win.
Dolphins QB depth chart
Miami’s depth on offense has been tested all season. Here’s a look at how the quarterback room breaks down with Tua out:
The veteran Huntley will assume the QB1 spot.
Tua missed four games earlier this season due to a concussion he suffered in Week 2. The Dolphins went 1-3 in those games and are 6-5 in games with their starting quarterback.
