Tua Tagovailoa set to return to practice after concussion, aiming for a comeback against the Cardinals.

Why it matters: The Dolphins have struggled without Tagovailoa, losing three out of four games in his absence and ranking last in points per game. His return could provide a much-needed boost to the team's offense.

What's new: After missing the past four games due to a concussion, Tagovailoa has been cleared by medical experts to return to practice. The Dolphins are hopeful that he will be able to play against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.

Yes, but: There is still uncertainty about who will serve as Tagovailoa's backup if he clears concussion protocol. Tyler Huntley, who started the past three games, left Sunday's game with a shoulder injury.

What to watch: All eyes will be on Tagovailoa during practice this week as he resumes football activities. It will be crucial to monitor his progress and how he responds to contact.

The bottom line: The Dolphins' offense has struggled in Tagovailoa's absence, and his return could provide a significant boost. However, his health and ability to stay on the field will be key factors in determining the team's success moving forward.
