Tagovailoa played the entire game for the Dolphins during a 26-20 loss against the Packers. It marked a fourth-straight loss for the Dolphins, who are on the verge of missing the postseason.<\/p>\n

On Monday, Tagovailoa self-reported his symptoms to the medical staff and team doctors sent him into the NFL’s concussion protocol.<\/p>\n

“I just want guys to really be done right by, by the information we have, the science and all the medical expertise that we rely on,”<\/strong> said head coach Mike McDaniel. “I care very deeply about each and every player, I take that very serious. We want Tua to get healthy and have peace of mind in that regard. It’s about the human being and making sure he’s squared away.”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Dolphins are 8-7 this season and currently occupy the #7 seed in the AFC as the third Wild Card team. The Dolphins have a 62% chance to secure an AFC Wild Card berth, according to a projection by FiveThirtyEight<\/em>. They play two more games, including a road game against the New England Patriots in Week 17, and then they host the New York Jets in Week 18.<\/p>\n
