5 Miami players to watch in Week 15

Tagovailoa has hit his stride in recent weeks. He has been doing well since returning from his concussion, but the last few weeks have been particularly strong.

Tagovailoa has rushed for over 300 yards in each of the last three weeks, but the Texans’ pass defense is no piece of cake. Houston has allowed 2,868 yards through the air (220.6 per game) this season – the seventh-best mark in the league.

Derek Stingley Jr. and rookie Kamari Lassiter bolster the secondary, which could be a challenge for Miami’s receivers. Tyreek Hill doesn’t quite look like the All-Pro version of himself, and Jaylen Waddle has struggled to find consistent production.

His receivers will have to help him, but Tagovailoa will have a lot of pressure on him Sunday to keep the offense moving.
