The Miami Dolphins will host the Washington Commanders in Week 11. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding QB Tua Tagovailoa.
Is Tua Tagovailoa Playing in Week 11?
Tagovailoa is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Dolphins’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Tagovailoa in Week 11?
Tua Tagovailoa had the two interceptions last week in the upset of the Bills, marking the fourth time in five games that he has had at least as many interceptions as touchdowns. However, in large part, I thought he played above his season average for the second time in three weeks.
The touchdown pass to Jaylen Waddle was a 38-yard dime, and his willingness to feed his WR1 since the Tyreek Hill injury is good to see. Waddle has at least five grabs in five of six games and has a 35+ yard catch in four of those games, a trend that has developed thanks to a versatile skill set.
Tagovailoa is doing what we need him to do for the pieces we trust in this offense (De’Von Achane is pacing for 83.3 receptions and is already over 1,100 scrimmage yards). Still, without rushing upside or passing aggression, there’s really no risk analysis that is going to work in favor of Miami’s signal-caller for fantasy managers.
When Throwing Past The Sticks
- 2022: 117.0 passer rating, 2.6 TD/INT
- 2023: 109.3 passer rating, 1.4 TD/INT
- 2024: 92.3 passer rating, 1.0 TD/INT
- 2025: 67.4 passer rating, 0.6 TD/INT
It’s perfectly fair to say that we’ve seen some better play from Tagovailoa of late, but that doesn’t mean he should be starting for your fantasy team, even in a plus-matchup.
