Tua Tagovailoa’s Parents Says QB Will Be Back for ’23 Season

Despite lingering questions about his long-term health following a season in which he sustained multiple concussions, Tua Tagovailoa’s parents maintained that the Dolphins quarterback will be back on the gridiron in 2023. 

Speaking to Rob DeMello of KHON2 in Hawai’i, Diane and Galu Tagovailoa thanked supporters of their son for their well-wishes throughout the difficult year. When asked whether or not the third-year signal-caller would be back on the field in Miami next fall, both parents were definitive. 

“Oh, he comes back,” Galu said Thursday, with Diane jumping in to confirm. “Yeah, he comes back. That’s their 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. Very thankful for Miami, the organization, the owner, GM, and head coach, Mike [McDaniel], I mean, that guy’s special. Very special head coach.”
