Suffering from a hard hit on the head, resulting in a concussion is never a positive site for any player. However, Tua Tagovailoa not only returned on the field even after suffering it but managed to lead his team to the victory in Week 3 against the resilient Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills.
However, as the Miami Dolphins look to lock horns against the mighty Cincinnati Bengals, who have just registered their first win of the 2022-23 NFL Season in dominating fashion previously, Tua Tagovailoa has been official ruled as questionable.
Having to stumble across the field, once he was back on his feet, luckily the Dolphins’ injury report didn’t mention any such ailment for Tua Tagovailoa. On the contrary, the marquee Quarterback was listed as having back and ankle injuries, which supports what the Miami Dolphins said after the game against Bills.
Will we witness a battle between Joe Burrow and Tua Tagovailoa?
That being said, the Dolphins would be keen on playing Tua Tagovailoa, especially when Joe Burrow is on the other side, to make things happen. Having got off to a great start in the 2022-23 season, this seems to be right time for the Dolphins to gain early momentum and secure their lead at the top.
Across three games so far, Tua Tagovailoa completed 72-of-101 passing attempts, resulting in 71.3% completion, for over 920 yards, 8 TouchDowns and only 2 interceptions. Moreover, Tua ranks as second in passing yards, and is currently tied to former MVP – Patrick Mahomes with the third most TouchDown passes in the league.
That being said, fans would be hoping to witness the battle between Tua and Joe as things unravel in the coming days. Will it be Bengals, who spark back to life? Or is Dolphins going to be the feel-good team in this season? Remains to be seen.
