Dolphins quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa and Teddy Bridgewater had full practices Friday, a first for both players since entering concussion protocol.

Tagovailoa will not play this week but is closer to a return.

Bridgewater, who also has a right pectoral injury, is questionable.

Coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday the Dolphins plan to start Skylar Thompson at quarterback this weekend. If Bridgewater is cleared, he is expected to serve as the backup.

Cornerback Kader Kohou (oblique) is doubtful after limited practices all week.

Left tackle Terron Armstead (toe), defensive back Elijah Campbell (foot), running back Raheem Mostert (knee) and tight end Durham Smythe (hamstring) are questionable.

Cornerback Xavien Howard (groins) returned to a full practice Friday and has no designation. Receivers Tyreek Hill (quad/foot) and Jaylen Waddle (groin) had full practices all week and are good to go as well.

  1. “ Bridgewater, who also has a right pectoral injury, is questionable.”
    ///// There it is.

  2. So miami beat writers officially requested the video of what the spotter saw to make him think he had a concussion, *stumble* and as of today not reply from the NFL on this hmmm what could be taking so long?….how many camera angles are at a game……

  3. Poor touchback6 head is going to implode when Tua comes back and Miami goes on a heater and wins 8 or 9 straight.
    Initially all he could say is how Tua was trash and now with Tua out he says Miami has no chance without Tua. Which is it?? You are as bad as some of these writers haha

    Tua is fine now but he should have never come back in the Bills game. If he stayed out like he was supposed to, we aren’t in this situation today, with the BS roughing calls or with Tua & Teddy B out this week. Plain and simple. Those guys probably are indeed fine to play this week, but lets not act like Miami didn’t do this to themselves.

  5. He is not gonna play for another 6 weeks do you guys understand how many twitter doctors he has to see before he is cleared to play

  6. Tua coming back at any point this season is only putting his life in danger. It will only take one hit like the one he took that caused the seizure.

  7. The woke police? Just how far up one’s arse does one’s head have to be to even use that term without parody?

    Why? Because you examined him? You know more than a neurologist because you saw him stumble?

    I don’t think “Woke” means what you think it means , just put your head back in the sand you’ll be OK .

    You certainly have the Fish swimming around in your New England mind!

    If you think that was merely a “stumble” then I can’t help you.

  12. I’m closer to the old school…but the fact of the matter is he did get knocked silly. And had a previous one. Probably good to err on the side of caution, right? Just because some guys had no repercussions…

  13. I’m thinking this is going to be a close contest. Vikings haven’t won in Miami in 46 years. I watched Thompson in college some…he’s a gamer. But I’m hoping he struggles. Miami is a bit beat up but it looks like they could be getting some guys back.

    A lot of you here simply don’t understand that this is a brain injury. It’s clear many of you do not care if Tua gets hurt, you just want your football.
