NFL Week 13 - Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa could have returned Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. Tagovailoa downplayed the extent of his ankle injury to reporters after the game, according to a quote from Around the NFL: "(I feel) as good as I can be coming off a game. We'll assess some things. As good as I can be." NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero believes that Tagovailoa is expected to play against the Los Angeles Chargers.
While the specificity of the ankle injury is not available, more than 75% of quarterbacks with ankle sprains leave the injury report entirely after three weeks of play.
