Tua Tagovailoa had a funny way of showing that the quarterback competition in Miami is not a fierce rivalry.
Tagovailoa, the Dolphins’ rookie quarterback, wore a Ryan Fitzpatrick jersey when he appeared on Zoom today for his first meeting with the Miami media, since signing up for training camp. Tagovailoa dragged to the sweater in front of the camera to make sure everyone is watching.
Tagovailoa said it is an honor to work with Fitzpatrick, who has been in the league since 2005, when Tagovailoa was 7 years old.
Fitzpatrick has previously said he will be Tagovailoa’s biggest cheerleader when Tagovailoa wins the starting position, and that he considers his own job both ready to play if he stays the starter and Tagovailoa ready to play as Dolphins coach Brian Flores decided to go with the rookie.
Whoever starts the week, the Dolphins need not worry about a divided locker room.
