Tua Tagovailoa is back, but Tyreek Hill deemed questionable – and Dolphins dealt crushing blow to defense

Dolphins officially confirm Tua Tagovailoa's status for Week 8 vs. Cardinals

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and wide receiver Tyreek Hill were both listed as questionable for a Week 8 game against the Arizona Cardinals. It would be a surprise, however, if either player was forced to sit out.

Tagovailoa is still on the Dolphins’ injured reserve and will likely be moved to the active roster Saturday after he officially cleared the concussion protocol Friday. But as a player who isn’t yet on the active roster, questionable is the standard status.

As for Hill, Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said Friday that he was feeling optimistic about the receiver’s chances at playing through a foot injury suffered in practice.

“I’m feeling good,” McDaniel said of Hill and receiver Jaylen Waddle. “We’ll see how today goes, but yes, I feel very optimistic and feel good about where they’re at.”

 

 

Defensive lineman Zach Sieler is out after suffering an eye poke in practice and cornerback Kader Kohou is out with a neck injury. With rookie Storm Duck also likely to miss Week 8, the Dolphins may lean on second-year cornerback Cam Smith in his first game back from injured reserve as well as special teamer Siran Neal.

For the Cardinals, the loss of cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting leaves the team without much experience in the secondary.
