Dolphins | Tua Tagovailoa expects new deal Sat Feb 3, 10:06 AM
Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa said he expects to sign a long-term contract with the Dolphins at some point.
| Footballguys view: The two sides should be able to work something out, and an extension could be done with Tagovailoa before the start of the regular season. So long as he's healthy, Tagovailoa can continue to flourish under the guidance of HC Mike McDaniel. |

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa is set to enter the final year of his rookie contract - a fifth-year team option set to pay him $23.171 million in 2024.
| Footballguys view: Tagovailoa works well in the system Mike McDaniel has put in place. It's all about "fit" in this league, and there's no doubt the two can post good numbers together. Dolphins GM Chris Grier noted on Tuesday, Jan. 16, that the team and Tagovailoa have had conversations about a long-term contract and that the club plans for Tagovailoa to be their quarterback long-term. |

Updating previous reports, Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (shoulder) said his left shoulder is fine, just sore, after the game Sunday, Dec. 31.
| Footballguys view: Good news for the Dolphins here. It's a huge game in the season finale against the Bills. The winner gets the division title, and the Bills will be out of the playoffs if they lose. Tagovailoa should be limited during the week of practice. |

| Footballguys view: Tagovailoa wasn't as befuddled by the Ravens pass defense as Brock Purdy was last week, but it was still not a difference-making result in fantasy final matchups. He'll face the Bills with the division on the line next week. |

| Footballguys view: Tagovailoa was terrific, but this game got out of hand too quickly for him to have a bigger fantasy day, and the Dolphins backs scored three times on the ground. He'll face another weak pass defense when the Titans come to Miami next week. We'll be watching to see if injuries to offensive linemen Terron Armstead and Robert Hunt affect the operation of the Dolphins offense. |

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa completed 28-of-39 passes for 325 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in Week 11 against the Las Vegas Raiders, while adding two runs for six yards and a lost fumble.
| Footballguys view: Tagovailoa had some miscues and a goal line pass to Tyreek Hill was stopped on fourth down, but he still had a strong fantasy game against an overmatched Raiders defense. Tagovailoa will have a tougher matchup on Friday against the Jets, so he's not a slam dunk play in Week 12. |

| Footballguys view: Tagovailoa and the Dolphins downfield passing game were contained by the strong Chiefs defense. Jaylen Waddle also got banged up in this one, but the Dolphins will go into their bye understanding what they need to work on to get to the level of the king of the AFC hill. |

| Footballguys view: Tagovailoa did much better for fantasy than he did in the first matchup vs. the Patriots, and he remained undefeated against them. He has the classic boom/bust profile and it's hard to find a good pattern to predict which weeks will be up and which will be down. He'll face Patrick Mahomes in Frankfurt, Germany next Sunday at a 930 AM start time stateside. |

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa completed 22-of-30 passes for 308 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Week 5 against the New York Giants, while adding two runs for six yards.
| Footballguys view: Tagovailoa was burning up the Giants defense with Tyreek Hill, the running backs scored twice, and he didn't need to do much in the second half up big in the second half, so it was just a modest success for fantasy. The Panthers defense will be Tagovailoa's next victim in Week 6. |

| Footballguys view: The Bills were able to limit big plays against their pass defense. Tagovailoa came back to earth for fantasy against a good defense, but he should skyrocket again next week against the Giants. The Bills defense will face Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars next week. |

| Footballguys view: Tagovailoa was nearly flawless and exposed the Broncos defense. He would be drafted much higher in fantasy drafts held today, and is an everyweek start going forward. The Dolphins red hot offense will face the resurgent Bills defense in Buffalo next week. |

| Footballguys view: Mike McDaniel has a system that's going to set things up with the ground game. It's all about influence in the Shanahan offense, and defenders are moved into position with the play-action game. Expect more of the same from Tagovailoa in 2023 and beyond. |

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has been cleared from the league's concussion protocol and is expected to be 100 percent for 2023, per sources on Wednesday, Feb. 1.
| Footballguys view: In the concussion protocol since Week 17, Tagovailoa had to miss a month due to two separate concussions in the 2022 season. He needs to seriously think about his long-term health, and the Dolphins need to be extremely careful with Tagovailoa as he goes through the offseason program and into training camp. |

Dolphins | Tua Tagovailoa expected back in 2023 Sat Jan 28, 01:18 PM
Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa is expected to return to the team in 2023, his mother, Diane Tagovailoa, said recently. 'Oh, he comes back,' she said. 'Yeah, he comes back. That's [the Dolphins'] guy. I mean, they love him. We love them and what they're doing and how [they are] helping him with his recovery and everything else, you know, trying to get him back, still going through his protocol, but we're grateful for them, too.'
| Footballguys view: There are plenty of questions about Tagovailoa's long-term availability. It sounds like he's on the road to recovery, although reports earlier this week indicated Tagovailoa was still in concussion protocol. When spring workouts get here (OTAs, minicamp) we'll see what Tagovailoa can do. |
