Tua Tagovailoa starts, has 1st pass picked off in Dolphins' win

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa started in his team's 28-3 preseason victory over the Houston Texans on Saturday.

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 Saturday, and Tagovailoa's first-down pass was intercepted by Houston's Denzel Perryman. He recovered, finishing 5-of-7 for 61 yards, before giving way to backup Skylar Thompson.
