Brissett was 11-for-23 passing for 156 yards before leaving. The Dolphins designated him as questionable to return.
In his first drive replacing Brissett, Tagovailoa went 1 for 3 for 9 yards. Given that his injury is to his throwing hand, it remains to be seen what his usage will be for the remainder of the game.
