Tua Tagovailoa is back in the starting lineup for the Miami Dolphins.

Tua has been dealing with a finger issue, and it’s limited his reps. He did come in against the Ravens last week and lead the team to a win. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

Now, he’s back to starting.

According to @flasportsbuzz, head coach Brian Flores informed the media Monday that Tua will start this week against the Jets.

This is great news for fans of the Dolphins. They’re not playing for much at this point, but Miami needs Tua to get as many reps as possible.

The Dolphins need to figure out whether or not he’s the man for them in the future. You can’t do that if he’s glued to the bench with an injury issue.

Now, Tua is back under center and it’s time for the Dolphins to get him as many snaps as possible. Will they make the playoffs?

Probably not, but at this point, it’s just about getting him as much time under center as they can going into the offseason.

Fans should certainly be happy about this update. That much is for sure!
