MIAMI GARDENS — Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was injured and carted off the field and into the locker room in the first quarter of the Dolphins’ home opener and Week 2 AFC East matchup with the Buffalo Bills.
Tagovailoa took a big hit from Bills defensive end A.J. Epenesa on a fourth-and-2 attempt from the Buffalo 48-yard line on Miami’s second offensive series. Tagovailoa’s pass fell incomplete as the Dolphins turned the ball over on downs.
Tagovailoa was down on the field for a few minutes, struggling to walk on his own to the sideline and holding his right side.
