Tagovailoa (ribs) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

This designation is a bit surprising considering coach Brian Flores suggested earlier this week the second-year quarterback was "day-to-day" after suffering broken ribs in the Week 2 blowout loss to the Bills. In any case, Tagovailoa will miss at least the next three games after landing on injured reserve. Jacoby Brissett is slated to start Sunday's contest against the Raiders, but given the severity of Tagovailoa's injury, it's possible the Dolphins could look to a number of options outside the organization in order to improve the team's depth at quarterback.
