MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — One of Tua Tagovailoa’s biggest “welcome to the NFL” moments as a rookie came in Denver facing Vic Fangio’s Broncos defense.
The Dolphins quarterback was roughed up for six sacks, could never get Miami’s offense going downfield, finished 11 of 20 for 83 yards and was benched for veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick in the fourth quarter of the 20-13 loss.
“I remember I was getting hit a lot,” said Tagovailoa last week at Dolphins mandatory minicamp. “I was getting confused where to go.”
