Tua Tagovailoa heading to Atlanta. ✍️
Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa will reportedly sign a one-year deal with the Atlanta Falcons after the Miami Dolphins release him later this week, per reports. 👀
The 28-year-old joins Atlanta’s QB room and is expected to compete with Michael Penix Jr., who is currently recovering from a partially torn ACL that ended his season last year. 🤕
Miami will still owe Tagovailoa $54M in guaranteed money this season, despite the move. The deal also comes during a major Falcons front-office reset, with Matt Ryan now serving as president of football operations and Kevin Stefanski stepping in as head coach. 💰
Tagovailoa is coming off a turbulent season that saw him throw 15 interceptions in 14 starts and eventually lose the starting job in Miami. His concussion history has also been a major storyline in recent years. 🐬
Now, the former Alabama star gets a fresh start in Atlanta, and a chance to battle for the QB1 role. 🏈
