Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is considered day-to-day with his injury status. Coach Flores said Tua is still in a good deal of pain. Head Coach Brian Flores said in his media session regarding Tua’s status for this upcoming Sunday, “If Tua can Go he is going to Go, that’s just the kind of kid he is.” Flores went on to say, “He’s a tough kid. I’d say he’s a very tough kid. Just coming back from the hip, he got a thumb (injury) last year he really played through. He tried to go yesterday. Toughness isn’t something that I would question with him. He’s going to do everything he can to get back as soon as he can. I have a lot of confidence in that.”
