Report: Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa Expected to Start vs. Chargers After Ankle Injury

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is expected to start in next week's game against the Los Angeles Chargers despite suffering an ankle injury in a 33-17 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

Although it's not clear what the extent of the injury is, Pelissero reported it's not believed to be "significant" and that Tagovailoa could have returned to the game if necessary.

In fact, Tagovialoa told reporters after the game that he felt "as good as I can."

Tagovialoa was placed in concussion protocol after suffering a scary injury and being stretchered off the field on Sept.
