He was controversially deemed fine to play for the Dolphins only four days after he appeared to struggle with a concussion in Sunday’s win over the Bills. But after a tackle from 6-foot-3, 340-pound Josh Tupou of the Bengals, Tagovailoa hit the back of his head, stayed down and was visibly distressed by the pain he was in.
