Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (hip) is not expected to play vs. the Jets today and would be iffy for the Wild Card round if Miami qualifies, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Tagovailoa is dealing with a "unique hip injury, which is affecting the surrounding muscles and therefore his strength and mobility, along with leaving him vulnerable to further injury," Rapoport writes. It's the same hip that Tagovailoa had surgically repaired while at Alabama in 2019. We'll see if QB Tyler Huntley can lead Miami to a win today. The Fins would also need a Broncos loss to the Chiefs to make the playoffs. It doesn't sound like Tagovailoa's hip injury is a long-term concern.

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (hip) is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Jets. QB Tyler Huntley is expected to make his second straight start. He played well last week, completing 22 of 26 passes (85%) for 225 yards (8.7 YPA) and one TD, adding another 52 yards and a score on the ground. Huntley is in play in superflex leagues and DFS tournaments.

Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that the team is preparing QB Tyler Huntley to start this weekend's game vs. the Jets. QB Tua Tagovailoa will be limited in practice on Wednesday with his hip injury, and it sounds like he hasn't been ruled out for Week 18 yet. But fantasy owners should be planning as if it'll be Huntley under center again for now. He played well in the Week 17 win over the Browns, completing 22 of 26 passes (85%) for 225 yards (8.7 YPA) and one TD, adding another 52 yards and a score on the ground. Just as importantly, the Dolphins stayed pass-heavy, registering a +11% pass rate over expected. That makes it easier to trust guys like WR Tyreek Hill and TE Jonnu Smith in Week 18 fantasy lineups, although Huntley is still a downgrade from Tagovailoa.

Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said after Sunday's win over the Browns that it's too early to know whether QB Tua Tagovailoa (hip) will be able to play vs. the Jets next weekend. McDaniel added that Tagovailoa was not medically cleared to play today. The Dolphins will get the AFC's No. 7 seed if they beat the Jets and the Broncos lose to the Chiefs. QB Tyler Huntley played a clean game in Cleveland, completing 22 of 26 passes for 225 yards, one TD, and 0 INTs and running seven times for 52 yards and a score.
