Tua Tagovailoa is set to start for the Dolphins in Sunday’s home game against the 49ers, but the quarterback is likely to be without one of his top targets.
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is doubtful to play this weekend. Waddle has been out of practice this week because of a knee injury.
Wide receiver Dee Eskridge is also dealing with a knee injury and has the same designation. Tyreek Hill, Malik Washington, and River Cracraft are the other wideouts on the 53-man roster.
Tagovailoa was limited in practice this week due to a hip injury, but McDaniel said he is good to go for Sunday.
Left tackle Terron Armstead (knee) and right tackle Kendall Lamm (back) are both considered questionable, so Tagovailoa may be short on protection along with receivers.
