The Dolphins will likely conclude the regular season without Tua Tagovailoa in the lineup as the star quarterback continues to recover from a concussion, coach Mike McDaniel announced Monday.
McDaniel told reporters Tagovailoa is currently not a part of the team’s plans for Sunday’s road game against the Jets, and that backups Teddy Bridgewater and Skylar Thompson are being prepared to play. McDaniel also noted that “no timeline has been discussed” for Tagovailoa’s return.
In regards to where Tagovailoa is in his recovery, McDaniel said he has no idea what stage of the protocol the 24-year-old is in before reiterating that his long-term health remains the priority.
