Dolphins vs. Jets Week 5: How to stream, TV channel, odds, spread, weather, more

The Miami Dolphins are 3-1 on the year and hold the top spot in the overall AFC standings. They dropped last week’s Thursday Night Football game to the Cincinnati Bengals. Now they look to get back to winning as they visit the New York Jets. At 2-2, the Dolphins’ AFC East division rivals are only a game behind Miami in the division and are looking to continue a surprising start to the 2022 season.

Miami comes into this game with a change at quarterback as Teddy Bridgewater starts for the injured Tua Tagovailoa. Tagovailoa sustained a concussion against the Bengals, an injury that led to him being taken off the field on a stretcher and being moved to a Cincinnati hospital before being cleared to fly home with the team. While he has been in the team facilities this week, he is still working his way through the concussion protocol and there is no timetable for his return to the field.

The NFL Players Association, in conjunction with the league, conducted an investigation into Tagovailoa’s injury, linking it to an injury the quarterback sustained in Week 3 against the Buffalo Bills. In that instance, Tagolvailoa appeared to stumble and shake his head after being thrown to the turf and hitting his head on the turf. He was cleared to return to that game after it was determined he had a back injury and not a concussion. After sustaining the concussion against the Bengals, there were a lot of assumptions that the Dolphins put Tagovailoa back in the game against the Bills with a concussion and that he should not have finished that game, nor should he have been playing against Cincinnati.

After the investigation, the NFL Players Association seems to think the concussion protocols were not executed as intended in the Week 3 contest, but they agree that there were no actual errors and that Tagovailoa was found to not have a concussion. However, they came to an agreement with the league to update the concussion protocols, starting immediately, so that anyone who stumbles like Tagovailoa did against the Bills would be entered into the concussion protocol, even if there is another injury that could explain the situation.

While Miami is looking to prove they can keep winning under Bridgewater, the Jets are enjoying the return of their starting quarterback. After knee surgery in August forced Zach Wilson to miss the first three weeks of the season, the 2021 first-round pick returned last week against the Pittsburgh Steelers and led the Jets to a fourth-quarter comeback win.

The Dolphins are listed as 3.5-point favorites as of Sunday morning, according to DraftKings Sportsbook. The total score is set at 45 points.
