MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — The Miami Dolphins will herald one other quarterback whereas starter Tua Tagovailoa offers along with his newest concussion, and coach Mike McDaniel insisted Friday that the one factor that ought to matter to him — or anybody — is Tagovailoa’s well being.
For the quick time period a minimum of, Skylar Thompson might be thought-about the Dolphins’ starter whereas Tagovailoa is sidelined. Tagovailoa left Thursday night time’s 31-10 loss to Buffalo within the third quarter with the third identified concussion of his NFL profession, all of them coming within the final 24 months.
“The crew and the group are very assured in Skylar,” McDaniel stated.
McDaniel stated the crew has not made any resolution about whether or not to put Tagovailoa on injured reserve. Tagovailoa was anticipated on the crew facility someday Friday to start out the method of being evaluated in earnest.
How lengthy that course of takes is without doubt one of the numerous unknowns proper now.
“The those that matter most, and their opinions, are Tua, the medical doctors and the consultants,” McDaniel stated.

McDaniel stated he tried to name Tagovailoa round 9 a.m. Friday to verify on him however didn’t join as a result of the quarterback was nonetheless asleep. The 2 have expressed typically over their time collectively that their relationship is shut and McDaniel tried to clarify a number of instances Friday that his high precedence is Tagovailoa’s well-being — not when he performs once more.
“All of the science behind concussions tells you what we’ve discovered is how delicate the time is true after an harm and the way necessary it’s that you just don’t institute further sources of hysteria,” McDaniel stated. “So, from my vantage level, I really feel it’s supremely necessary in understanding that, that I’m not giving off any kind of vibes.”
There are a slew of veteran quarterbacks accessible for the Dolphins to think about, together with Jimmy Garoppolo and former Miami starter Ryan Tannehill. The Dolphins haven’t revealed any gamers who’re into consideration, and — regardless of loads of former gamers suggesting it might be time for Tagovailoa to think about his long-term well being — McDaniel stated it could be “so fallacious” for him to even take into consideration weighing in on whether or not the quarterback ought to play once more.
“I want folks would for a second hear what I’m saying, that mentioning his future just isn’t in the most effective curiosity of him,” McDaniel stated. “So, I’m going to plead with everyone that does genuinely care — that needs to be the very last thing in your thoughts.”

McDaniel added that he doesn’t see Tagovailoa taking part in in Miami’s subsequent sport at Seattle on Sept. 22.
Tagovailoa was harm on a play the place he collided into Payments defensive again Damar Hamlin. Tagovailoa, who was dashing efficiently for a primary down, initiated the contact by reducing his shoulder into Hamlin as an alternative of sliding as many quarterbacks do on a scramble.
McDaniel gave his quarterback a kiss on the facet of the top as he left the sphere Thursday. McDaniel revealed Friday that, in that second, he was telling Tagovailoa to give attention to what issues most — his well being and his household.
“All I’m telling Tua is everyone seems to be relying on you to be a dad and be a dad this weekend,” McDaniel stated. “After which we’ll transfer from there.”
There are 5 steps, as mandated by the NFL concussion protocol, that Tagovailoa should clear earlier than he can return to the sphere. That course of can take days and even weeks.
Tagovailoa was 17 for 25 passing for 145 yards, with one landing and three interceptions — one among which was returned for a Buffalo rating — when he obtained harm. Thompson accomplished eight of 14 passes for 80 yards.
“We’re simply evaluating the professionals and cons for the completely different conditions and getting by way of all these prospects to do the most effective factor for the crew,” McDaniel stated, when revealing that the crew had already determined to usher in one other quarterback. “However because it stands at present, I’m anticipating that Skylar is the following man up.”
Thompson stated he feels “absolutely geared up” to run the Dolphins’ offence.
“What’s going to lie forward, who is aware of, however man, I’m assured, although,” Thompson stated after Thursday’s sport. “I really feel like I’m prepared for no matter’s to come back. I’m going to organize and work exhausting and do every little thing I can to steer this crew and do my job.”
