The Splash Zone 9/26/21: Dolphins at Raiders

We already knew Tua Tagovailoa was going to miss today’s game against the Raiders, we just weren’t sure when he would be back. We got the that news yesterday though as the Dolphins placed Tua on injured reserve, meaning the earliest he can come back would be against the Jaguars on October 11th. The Dolphins are going to face off against a tough Raiders team who is looking to stay undefeated today, but maybe Jacoby Brissett will have something to say about that.

You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day’s round-up below.
