MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Miami Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said he expects quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to play again this season, although he didn't have an exact date for his return.

Tagovailoa has spent the past four weeks on injured reserve with a concussion he suffered on Sept. 12 and isn't eligible to return until the Dolphins' game against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8.

McDaniel did not commit to Tagovailoa returning when he's eligible next week, but for the first time since his injury, he did offer some optimism into the quarterback playing again this season. «I do expect to see him playing football in 2024,» McDaniel said Monday. «But where that is, exactly — we'll let the process continue, since we still have time before he can even entertain anything.

We'll make sure that he's diligent this week and assess after that.» Tagovailoa has a history of concussions since entering the league in 2020.
