Tua Tagovailoa (back/ankle) expected to play Thursday for Dolphins
Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (back/ankle, questionable) is expected to play on Thursday night against the Cincinnati Bengals, reports Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
What It Means:
Tagovailoa is still officially listed as questionable, but it seemed like he would play for most of the week. Jaylen Waddle, who is listed as questionable with a groin injury, is also expected to play. Teddy Bridgewater will make the start if Tagovailoa suffers a setback, which would be a sizable downgrade for Waddle and Tyreek Hill.
Tua is the QB10 in numberFire's Week 4 rankings and he has a $15,000 salary on FanDuel's single-game slate. Our models project him to score the second-most FanDuel points in the contest at 17.8. The Bengals are allowing the third-fewest FanDuel points per game to the quarterback position this season.
