McDaniel declined to say who won the starting left guard (LG) slot. He cited competitive advantages as the reason of not naming the starter to the public at this time. Liam Eichenberg currently shows on the first team on the depth chart, but Isaiah Wynn started the final two exhibition games. Eichenberg has missed some time to an injury this training camp.

Terron Armstead has not been practicing as result of a leg injury he sustained in the joint team practices with the Houston Texans. McDaniel did not say want to rule Armstead out or in. So as for now, Armstead’s status for Week 1 remains unknown.

Tagovailoa said why not when asked there is talk about making the Super Bowl, he said that all teams do it. It is the reason that you play. He does not compare himself to Justin Herbert. Tagovailoa said he admire Herbert’s skill, but said he is a completely different style of quarterback than himself.
