The Miami Dolphins have played without starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa since Week 2. Here's the latest on his return from coach Mike McDaniel.

In four games without Tua Tagovailoa, the Miami Dolphins scored a grand total of 40 points. For perspective, the last team unable to average more than 10 points per game over the course of a season was the 1991 Indianapolis Colts, who fired their coach after five games and finished 1-15.

Miami placed Tagovailoa on the injured reserve list (IR) where the first game he would be eligible to play is in Week 8 against the Arizona Cardinals. Russini would confirm that barring any snags in the carpet, McDaniel has told the team that Tagovailoa is expected to practice this upcoming week and play against the Cardinals per The Athletic.
