Tua Tagovailoa’s relationship with cornrows lasted as long as a cup of coffee.
He gave fans a taste of being a Drake look-a-like, but it did not stick. Tagovailoa is one of the best quarterbacks in the National Football League, and he is in the running for Most Valuable Player. The native Hawaiian operates an exciting offensive attack; however, his teammate wants him to continue to elevate his swagger. Tyreek Hill, one of the most electric wide receivers in the league, did not want to see Tagovailoa part from his cornrows. He spoke about it to Miami reporters, but he also unveiled the latest move he wants to see from Tagovailoa. Hill is trying to have his quarterback go into a complete rapper persona.
Tyreek Hill said Tua should’ve kept the cornrows in because it was “next-level swagger.” He said the next step for Tua is a gold grill 😬 … 😂😂 https://t.co/TIZBWBh1Im pic.twitter.com/Ubgj0duM0a

“I told Tua he should have left his cornrows in because I liked him having the cornrows and him having the swagger to wear a durag under his helmet,” Hill said. “That was next-level swagger, but the next level for Tua will be to get him a grill. A gold grill. That is what we are working on now.”

He stands second in the NFL for touchdown passes with 21.
