Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa will return to the field Wednesday for limited practice, NFL Network reports.
Tagovailoa is progressing through concussion protocol but is unlikely to face the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, even if he is cleared.
Tagovailoa suffered a concussion Sept. 29 against the Cincinnati Bengals after taking a sack from the quarterback in the first half. He was taken off the field on a stretcher and taken to hospital and remains on concussion protocol.
It came four days after Tagovailoa was tackled hard in a game against the Buffalo Bills, where he appeared to struggle to stay on his feet afterwards. Teddy Bridgewater replaced him the next game as the starting quarterback, but he was forced out of Sunday’s game against the New York Jets with a head and elbow injury.
In four games this season, Tagovailoa has thrown for 1,035 yards, thrown for eight touchdowns and had seven interceptions.
The Dolphins are 3-2, which ranks third in the AFC East Division.
