Tagovailoa had been dealing with some back tightness, which limited him to individual drills Friday, but the QB has progressed to the point where he's back at it for 11-on-11 work.

FavorableOver his last 10 games, Tua Tagovailoa has gone over 175.5 PASS YDS 5 of 10 decided times (50%) — versus 50% across the full season. PIT has been a favorable matchup for quarterbacks this season, allowing the 1st-most PASS YDS of 32 teams (260.4 per game). His game-to-game PASS YDS have been moderately variable (σ ≈ 60.4), so short streaks can mislead. These are descriptive stats about past games, not predictions or betting advice.
Enter the book's American odds to see implied probability, the no-vig fair price, and the edge vs. this player's season hit rate.
Hit rate excludes pushes from the denominator. Confidence uses a 95% Wilson interval — a high recent rate on few games still reads as low confidence. Season over rate at this line: 50%.
