The Miami Dolphins are 2-3 in 2024 and are coming off a Week 4 bye. Their last game was a 15-10 win on the road vs. the New England Patriots. Miami is patiently waiting for the return of their franchise QB Tua Tagovailoa. In Week 2, the 26-year-old suffered another nasty concussion.
Tagovailoa was soon placed on the IR and he’s missed the last three games in a row. He’ll miss Week 7 vs. the Colts but would be eligible to return in Week 8 vs. the Cardinals.
