Tua Tagovailoa will sit week three and maybe longer with rib injury

The Miami Dolphins and especially their fans, will have to wait a few weeks to find out if Tua Tagovailoa will become the QB they need them to be. For now, he will miss week three and could miss more.

After initial thoughts leaned towards bruised ribs, it is now being reported that he has fractured ribs and while there isn’t much you can do for them, they can be very painful. Miami lost Tua on the second drive of the game when Jesse Davis whiffed on his block.

Tagovailoa’s immediate future isn’t known beyond Sunday but the Dolphins will likely need to bring in another QB and Jake Ruddock could be added to the team as Reid Sinnett will likely get promoted to the 53 man roster.
