Tua Tagovailoa is in the concussion protocol for the second time this season and is questionable for Sunday's game.

The coach said that Teddy is going to start against the Pats. If Miami wins out or wins one of its final two games, it will break a five-year playoff streak.

The team lost to the Green Bay Packers on Christmas Day. After the game, he spoke to the media.

Tagovailoa was told to meet with team doctors after he showed concussion symptoms. He was placed into concussion protocol after reporting his symptoms.

A source said that the situation is being reviewed by the league's players association.

The quarterback has had three head injuries this year.

The Dolphins initially thought Tagovailoa had suffered a head injury against the Bills. He was allowed to return to the game. The consultant was let go.

After hitting the back of his head on the ground, Tagovailoa was knocked unconscious. He was taken to the hospital.

The league changed its concussion protocol after the incident to make it mandatory for any player who shows a lack of balance or stability to sit out the rest of the game.

The long-term health of Tagivailoa was of paramount importance.

He wants his son to get healthy and have peace of mind. Whatever the circumstances are after, you deal with after. It's about the person and making sure he's taken care of.
