Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is expected to play in Sunday’s game against the host Atlanta Falcons despite being added to the injury report with an illness.

Tagovailoa, who does not carry an injury designation into the game, was benched last week in a 31-6 loss to the Cleveland Browns. He threw three interceptions and mustered only 100 passing yards with 12 completions and a career-worst passer rating of 24.1. It was his second consecutive three-INT game.

Quinn Ewers and Zach Wilson competed for the role of primary backup quarterback this week, per head coach Mike McDaniel.

Tagovailoa, 27, has thrown for 1,313 yards with 11 touchdowns and 10 interceptions for Miami (1-6), which has dropped three consecutive games for the second time this season.
