The Miami Dolphins and star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa agreed to terms on a new four-year contract extension on Friday.

Under his new deal, Tagovailoa figures to remain in Miami through the 2027 season, and will collect a total of $212.4 million, including a reported $167 million in guaranteed money. As has been the case with most quarterbacks contracts doled out of late, Tagovailoa's deal surpasses the $50 million annual average value mark, as he's set to bring in an AAV of $53.1 million per season.
