MIAMI GARDENS -- For the first time in 42 days, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa stepped to the podium at the team's training facility on Monday. He'd held the door open for a communications staffer, as he always does, before taking his familiar position in front of a group of media members.
He'd spent the past five weeks on injured reserve after suffering the third concussion of his NFL career on Sept. 12. Per NFL policy, players on reserve aren't required to speak to the media. Tagovailoa was technically still on reserve, but a team source said he opted to get his weekly news conference out of the way before his practice window opened in Week 8.
