After suffering his third documented concussion in the last two years, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has been placed on injured reserve, keeping him off the field for at least the next month. It comes amid new discussions if the NFL star should be playing football again. NBC’s Sam Brock reports for TODAY.
Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel expects quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to play again this season, he said Monday. Tagovailoa has not played since suffering a concussion against the Buffalo Bills on Sept. 12. “I do expect to see him playing football in 2024,” McDaniel said. “But where that is, exactly — we’ll let the process continue, since we still have time before he can even entertain anything. We’ll make sure that he’s diligent this week and assess after that.
Tagovailoa must also clear the NFL’s concussion protocol before he is eligible to play, a process that begins only after he’s activated from IR. The concussion Tagovailoa sustained against the Bills is at least the third of his professional career. He suffered two during the 2022 season, which caused him to miss four regular season games plus the Dolphins’ lone playoff game.
