The New England Patriots’ upcoming opponent is facing some major questions at the quarterback position: the Miami Dolphins had to place starter Tua Tagovailoa in the concussion protocol, leaving his status for the Week 17 clash in question.
Tagovailoa is in the middle of his best season to date, but his history of head injuries is a concerning one. He was first evaluated for a concussion in September, and later missed a pair of games the following month while in the protocol. Now, he has reentered it after showing symptoms following Miami’s loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.
