News for Tagovailoa, Tua
Tua Tagovailoa completed 2-of-3 passes for 34 yards and an interception in the Falcons’ 30-23, Week 5 loss to the Ravens. 2026-10-12 00:00:02 Tagovailoa came on in relief of the injured Michael Penix late in the fourth quarter and would be charged with leading the Falcons to a potential game-tying drive in overtime after the Ravens took the ball and scored a touchdown to start the extra period. He completed one pass at the end of the fourth quarter, one in overtime, and then threw a game-ending interception to send the Falcons to a 2-3 record ahead of a Week 6 meeting with the Bears. Fantasy managers of Penix will want to track his status closely in the coming days.
Falcons QB Tua Tagovailoa (oblique) was removed from the injury report for Week 3 against the Packers. 2026-09-23 17:00:02 Tagovailoa joins a jumbled Falcons backup quarterback group for Thursday Night Football. He does not need to be rostered in 12-team leagues. The Falcons will start QB Michael Penix (knee).
Amazon Prime’s James Palmer reports Tua Tagovailoa (oblique) will play in Week 3 against the Packers. 2026-09-23 12:00:01 Tagovailoa, fighting injuries for much of the offseason, missed Atlanta’s first two games with an oblique issue. He’ll return just in time to serve as backup to Michael Penix, who’s returning from a 2025 ACL injury. Penix is set to start Thursday night against a Packers defense allowing the ninth lowest adjusted yards per pass attempt.
Tua Tagovailoa (oblique) returned to practice on Tuesday. 2026-09-22 14:00:02 With Michael Penix already named the starter, Tagovailoa will be aiming to back him up in Week 3’s TNF clash with the Packers.
Falcons HC Kevin Stefanski said Tua Tagovailoa is “getting better” from his oblique injury. 2026-09-21 14:00:01 Stefanski said the team will “work through what that means for this week.” Time will tell whether or not that means Tagovailoa has a chance to play in Week 3 against the Packers on Thursday night, as the Falcons have a number of ways they can go at QB this week after another disastrous outing by Cooper Rush. Tagovailoa did not log a practice last week, but Michael Penix (knee) was a full participant. It would be fair to assume that Penix is closer to returning than Tua, but we’ll see where things stand when the team releases its estimated injury report later today.
