He ranks in the top five among quarterbacks in the National Football League for passing yards (3,457, No. 3), touchdown passes (24, tied for No. 2), quarterback rating (61.9, No. 7), passer rating (106, No. 4), and completion percentage (70.1, tied for No. 3).
Tagovailoa has five 300+ yard passing games and seven matchups with 2+ touchdown passes.
He has the Dolphins leading the AFC East at 9-3 with a chance to make a deep run in the playoffs.
