MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Miami Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said Friday there is no timetable for the return of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who suffered a concussion after hitting his head in the turf the previous day against the Cincinnati Bengals.
McDaniel also defended Tagovailoa’s injury against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, when the QB appeared to have taken a hit from linebacker Matt Milano late in the first half and hit his head. He stumbled when he got up, was hauled into the locker room to be evaluated for concussion, and returned to the game at the start of the third quarter.
McDaniel reiterated Friday that Tagovailoa was cleared by several layers of medical professionals during Sunday’s game and said the QB did not have a head injury.

While on the ground, Tagovailoa seemed to display a fencing reaction with his fingers frozen in front of his face. He lay down for over seven minutes before being loaded onto the backboard and stretched off the field.
The Dolphins later said he was conscious and had movement in all four limbs.
