    Dolphins GM Chris Grier said the team had no long-term concern about Tua Tagovailoa’s hip.
    Grier also noted that the team was “in a couple of top flight backup QBs” last offseason and that “every stone will be unturned” at backup QB this offseason. It sure sounds like Tagovailoa will be healthy enough to go in to next season as the No. 1 signal caller after missing the last two weeks of the season with a hip injury. But the Dolphins also appear to realize they can’t take it for granted that Tagovailoa will start 17 games now that he has missed at least four games in four of his five NFL seasons.
  • MIA Quarterback #1
    Tua Tagovailoa (hip) did not play in Week 18 against the Jets.
    Tagovailoa’s season ends on the bench with a line of 2867-19-7, as the Dolphins’ franchise quarterback spent the final two games of the season sidelined by a hip injury. Injuries are once again at the forefront of the conversation for Tagovailoa, who suffered yet another concussion this season and missed four games as a result. He picked up the hip injury in Week 16. Tagovailoa signed a four-year, $212.4 million contract extension this offseason, and had yet another year marred by injuries. Even when healthy, Tagovailoa didn’t turn out nearly as many big plays as we’ve grown accustomed to in previous season. His 7.2 YPA and 9.9 yards per completion were the second-lowest marks of his career, while more than 60 percent of his passes had an ADOT of less than 10 yards. Tagovailoa and the Dolphins have a lot to figure out in the offseason, but his future with the team is firmly intact as long as he can stay healthy. He’ll likely profile as a QB2 heading into fantasy drafts next season.
  • MIA Quarterback #1
    Dolphins declared QB Tua Tagovailoa, LB Anthony Walker, LB Mohamed Kamara, OL Andrew Meyer, OL Braeden Daniels, WR Dee Eskridge, and WR Erik Ezukanma inactive for Week 18 against the Jets.
    Tagovailoa wasn’t expected to suit up this week after head coach Mike McDaniel expressed concern over his availability throughout the week. Tagovailoa’s regular season ends with a line of 2867-19-7, but there’s still a chance he returns for the AFC Wild Card round if the Dolphins are able to sneak into the playoffs.
  • MIA Quarterback #1
    Tua Tagovailoa (hip) is doubtful for Week 18 against the Jets.
    All signs point toward Tagovailoa sitting this week but remained involved as a limited practice participant all week and the Dolphins still have a chance to make the playoffs. Fantasy managers should expect to be without him. He is a highly volatile starting option if active though. The Jets’ flailing defense could facilitate an efficient outing.
  • MIA Quarterback #1
    Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Tua Tagovailoa (hip) is not expected to need surgery.
    Speaking Friday, McDaniel announced that the team is preparing to be without Tagovailoa for Sunday’s season-finale against the Jets. He said of his QB1’s hip injury that it is a “stop aggravating this by pushing through it” type of injury while also highlighting it as a muscle injury that has affected Tagovailoa’s mobility. Tagovailoa, said he does plan to play in the playoffs if things break in the Dolphins’ favor, is a near-lock to miss Sunday’s game, but we’ll know for sure when the team releases its final injury report later in the day.
  • MIA Quarterback #1
    Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said the team is preparing for the week as if Tyler Huntley is starting.
    McDaniel’s tone hasn’t changed much since Wednesday when he said the team was preparing for Huntely to start. Tua Tagovailoa (hip) logged a limited practice on Thursday, but it doesn’t sound like he’s gained much ground on his recovery ahead of the team’s regular-season finale against the Jets. The Dolphins still have a chance to sneak into the AFC playoffs, but will need a win on Sunday over the Jets and the Chiefs, who are expected to play mostly backups, to beat the Broncos. Tagovailoa hasn’t played since suffering a hip injury in Week 16 against the 49ers, and may not play another regular season game until Week 1 of the 2025 season.
  • MIA Quarterback #1
    Tua Tagovailoa (hip) was listed as a limited participant for Thursday’s practice.
    Tagovailoa has now been listed as a limited participant in back-to-back practices. Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Wednesday that he doesn’t expect Tagovailoa to be ready for the Week 18 battle against the Jets, so even with the southpaw able to practice, it’ll still likely be Tyler Huntley under center for that season finale.
  • MIA Quarterback #1
    Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said Tua Tagovailoa (hip) is expected to be limited in practice on Wednesday, but the team is preparing for Tyler Huntley to start in Week 18 against the Jets.
    Tagovailoa missed Week 17 with the hip issue. A limited practice gives him a shot at suiting up on Sunday, though that looks awfully unlikely to happen as of Wednesday. Tyler Huntley will draw the start. Miami needs to win on Sunday and get a Denver loss to make the playoffs. If both happen, Tua could return in the Wild Card Round.
  • MIA Quarterback #18
    Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said Tyler Huntley will get more reps than Tua Tagovailoa at practice this week.
    “We are in gray area because... his body did not cooperate,” McDaniel said of Tagovailoa. The Dolphins are leaving it up in the air for now but it sure seems likely based on today’s updates that Huntley will start against the Jets in Week 18.
  • MIA Quarterback #1
    ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports “it’s fair to say his status [against the Jets] is in question” when asked about Tua Tagovailoa (hip).
    “I don’t think it’s a lock he plays this week. The hip was more banged up than people realize,” Schefter added. This will keep Tyler Huntley’s chances of getting in against the Jets in Week 18 live, and if Huntley does play the Dolphins offensive product will again mostly be screens and running plays, lowering their offensive upside further.
