Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa starts, has first pass picked off

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa started in the team's preseason game Saturday against the Houston Texans.

Tagovailoa hadn't played since Miami's loss to the Green Bay Packers last season on Christmas Day. He sustained a concussion in the game and was effectively shut down for the remainder of the season.

The Dolphins had the opening possession and Tagovailoa's first-down pass was intercepted by Houston's Denzel Perryman.

Miami released a list of players not expected to play against the Texans, which included wide receiver Jaylen Waddle and left tackle Terron Armstead, who are dealing with midsection and knee injuries, respectively.
