Tagovailoa has spent time in concussion protocol, but he has cleared all tests. He made the trip with the team for a matchup versus the Minnesota Vikings. Miami has dropped to 3-3 since Tagovailoa’s injury, but the third-year signal-caller can turn it around this week. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Tagovailoa will return to face the Pittsburgh Steelers.

He has 1,035 passing yards, eight touchdowns, and three interceptions. Dolphins fans are excited to have Tagovailoa back.
