Dolphins head coach Brian Flores addressed previous Deshaun Watson rumors with his team before the season began and publicly backed Tua Tagovailoa as the starting quarterback. Tagovailoa returned to the field last Sunday after missing the past three weeks with a left rib fracture.
The Washington Football Team was rumored as a potential landing spot for Tagovailoa, but a source close to the situation told NBC Sports Washington's JP Finlay that the Football Team is not expected to make a move for the Dolphins quarterback.
The Texans travel to Miami to face the Dolphins on Nov. 7.
