The Miami Dolphins marked the return of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in a fashion their fans would both love and hate: jumping out to a big lead and holding on at the end.
Miami jumped out to a double-digit lead and used its defense to seal a 16-10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, breaking a three-game losing streak in front of a sellout crowd at Hard Rock Stadium.
In his first action since being carted off the field with a concussion on September 29, Tagovailoa went 6 for 7 passing for 68 yards and an eight-yard touchdown pass to running back Raheem Mostert on the opening drive. After a three-and-out by the Steelers on their opening drive, Tagovailoa led another series that ended with a 24-yard field goal by kicker Jason Sanders to make it 10-0.
Miami's defense got into the action when cornerback Justin Bethel intercepted a pass from Pittsburgh's Kenny Pickett, leading to a 42-yard field goal from Sanders and a 13-0 lead after the first quarter.
