Tagovailoa is still dealing with a left middle finger injury that also kept him out of the starting lineup in Week 9. On Monday, Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said that the finger remains an issue but that he believes Tagovailoa will be well enough to make his sixth start of the season.

Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said after the game that Jacoby Brissett got the start because the Dolphins didn’t feel Tua Tagovailoa‘s fractured middle finger allowed him to make all the throws needed to do the job.

Ian Rapoport tweeted that HC Brian Flores said Tua was throwing and doing well, perhaps a good sign he can play in Week 6, which is a game in London against the Jags.

This was supposed to be the plan all along, a Week 6 return, and looks to be good news for the Dolphins that Tua is on track. The Dolphins need a win and will travel to London to take on the Jaguars. Fantasy owners should know Tua's status for Week 6 well in advance, especially with it being an early morning game.
