Report: Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa Available to Play vs. Patriots After Hip Injury

Miami Dolphins rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa will reportedly be available to play in the team's season-opening game at the New England Patriots on Sunday.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Tagovailoa has been a full participant in practice this week and has recovered from the hip surgery that cut short his 2019 collegiate season at Alabama.

Veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick will start, and with no other quarterback on the active roster, Tagovailoa will likely serve as his backup.
