On Monday, Miami Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel announced that wide receiver Jaylen Waddle suffered a concussion against the New England Patriots. The former first-round pick was injured with 4:42 remaining in the fourth quarter.
Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa fired a pass to Waddle downfield with the Dolphins leading 24-17. The attempt fell incomplete, and Patriots’ linebacker Marte Mapu was flagged 15 yards on the play for an unnecessary hit.
When meeting with the media on Monday, McDaniel mentioned that Waddle is already working through concussion protocol, according to ESPN’s Marcel Louis-Jacques.
