The quarterback will be meeting with doctors.

Rapoport said, “His eyes are already on returning to the football field.”

Tagovailoa went down with a concussion during the third quarter of the Dolphins loss to the Bills.

The quarterback displayed signs of the ‘fencing posture’ after lowering his head into Damar Hamlin.

Within minutes, he was diagnosed with a concussion.

In 2022, Tagovailoa had three diagnosed concussions.

During that offseason, he worked on martial arts to learn to fall properly.

The quarterback led the NFL in passing in 2023 and played all 17 games.

For now, Skylar Thompson is the Dolphins starting quarterback.

The Fins play at Seattle next Sunday.
