**Miami Gardens, FL** – The Buffalo Bills showcased their dominance over the Miami Dolphins on Thursday night, securing a convincing 31-10 victory. The game was marred by a concerning injury to Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who left the game in the third quarter after suffering a concussion following a collision with Bills safety Damar Hamlin.
Tagovailoa’s injury sparked immediate concern, given his history of head injuries. Coach Mike McDaniel declined to specify if Tagovailoa would be placed on injured reserve, but stated that the team would assess his condition further on Friday.
The Bills’ offense was led by the dynamic James Cook, who scored three touchdowns, including a 49-yard rushing touchdown. Bills quarterback Josh Allen, playing with a heavily wrapped left hand, threw for 139 yards and a touchdown, further demonstrating his toughness.
The Bills’ defense also played a crucial role in the victory, forcing three turnovers and limiting the high-powered Dolphins offense to a single touchdown and field goal.
The game highlighted the ongoing rivalry between the two teams, with the Bills now boasting a 14-2 record against the Dolphins since Sean McDermott became head coach in 2017.
