JACOBY BRISSETT NEWS

Another spot start Brissett will start Thursday's game against the Ravens with Tua Tagovailoa (finger) serving as the Dolphins' backup quarterback, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

Impact As was the case this past Sunday, Brissett will get another spot start, his fifth overall this season, as Tagovailoa continues to recover from a fractured left middle finger. In the previous four outings, Brissett completed 65.2 percent of his passes, averaged 233.3 yards per game and tossed five touchdowns versus three interceptions. He also added 11 carries for 52 yards and one more score. Brissett will attempt to exploit a Baltimore defense that has conceded the fifth-highest YPA (8.1) to opposing signal-callers on the campaign.

Impact The veteran was called into action when Tua Tagovailoa was deemed a bit too risky a proposition to start the contest due to his finger fracture. Brissett performed reasonably well under the circumstances, although the pair of interceptions were a blemish. Brissett also encouragingly got Jaylen Waddle more involved downfield than in prior games, connecting with the talented rookie on eight occasions for 83 yards. The 28-year-old Brissett may be set for another start Thursday night against the Ravens if Tagovailoa is still considered too injured to helm the offense.

Getting surprise start Week 9 Brissett is expected to start Sunday's game against the Texans with No. 1 quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (finger/ribs) likely to be available only in a backup capacity, Adam Schefter o...

Impact Schefter notes that Tagovailoa hasn't healed as quickly as anticipated from a small fracture in the middle finger of his throwing hand, so Brissett will be in line to pick up his fourth start of the season. Because the Dolphins didn't add another quarterback to the roster prior to Saturday's deadline for Week 9 transactions, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network relays that Tagovailoa is in line to back up Brissett. Over his previous three starts earlier this season while Tagovailoa dealt with fractured ribs, Brissett went 0-3 while completing 66.9 percent of his passes for 5.8 yards per attempt and a 4:1 TD:INT. Brissett also added 45 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries over that stretch.

NFL Injuries: Why hamstring ailments are common for skill-position players

Hamstring injuries are fairly common in the NFL, especially for skill position players. Dr. Matt Provencher explains why.

OCTOBER 26, 2021

Active for Sunday's game Brissett (hamstring) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Impact Though Brissett is available Sunday, he's slated to return to a backup role with Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) active versus Jacksonville and slated to reclaim his starting QB role. Meanwhile, fellow signal-caller Reid Sinnett is inactive for the contest.

OCTOBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for London game Brissett (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Joe Schad of the Palm Beach Post reports.

Impact Regardless of Brissett's health, Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) is expected to come off IR and start under center for the Dolphins in London. If Tagovailoa suffers a setback and Brissett also can't go, Reid Sinnett would be thrust into the starting quarterback role.

Barring setback, Dolphins say Tagovailoa is ready to return

Barring a setback, Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is ready for his comeback

Remains limited in practice Brissett (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports.

Impact Brissett turned in limited practices Wednesday and Thursday while managing the sore hamstring, seemingly putting him in a good spot to be available Sunday against the Jaguars in London even if he happens to be less than 100 percent. Whether Brissett draws a fourth straight start remains to be seen, however, as the Dolphins designated Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) to return from injured reserve Tuesday and could activate him in advance of the Week 6 contest. The Dolphins would likely make a decision on Tagovailoa's status by Friday or Saturday, but if the second-year signal-caller is available, Brissett would likely move back into the No. 2 role.

Limited in practice Brissett (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Brissett managed to return to Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers after injuring his hamstring, but it appears that he's still dealing with lingering soreness. Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) has resumed practicing and is eligible to come off IR, but the Dolphins haven't yet brought him back to the active roster. For the time being, Miami's quarterback situation should be considered uncertain, and will need to be monitored as Sunday's game in Jacksonville approaches.

Still sore Monday Brissett (hamstring) is sore and receiving treatment Monday, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

Impact Brissett sustained a hamstring strain in the first quarter of Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers but was able to remain in the game. Even if the 28-year-old is cleared to suit up for Week 6, he isn't guaranteed a starting role because Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) could return to practice and do enough to clear himself ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
