The Miami Dolphins will reportedly be without one of their more explosive offensive weapons in Week 3 against the Denver Broncos due to a head injury.
Concussions plagued the Dolphins season in 2022. Tua Tagovailoa suffered multiple head injuries and missed the Dolphins playoff loss to the Buffalo Bills in the Wild Card round.
Key wide receiver Jaylen Waddle suffered a concussion stemming from a hit he received in the fourth quarter of the Dolphins win over the New England Patriots on Sunday Night Football in Week 2. On Friday, the Dolphins listed Waddle as questionable to play the Broncos with the head injury.
