Tua Tagovailoa is putting the National Football League on notice ahead of his third season.
He overcame a gruesome hip injury at Alabama in 2019 and fractured ribs last year with the Miami Dolphins.

Despite the injuries, Tagovailoa is starting to look like the quarterback that emerged off the bench as a freshman in 2017 to win the College Football Playoff National Championship for the Crimson Tide. He is removed from injuries and is hard at work with his PER4ORM training team. Tagovailoa tossed 70-yard passes to Dolphins’ receiver Lynn Bowden this morning on a field.

He’s prepared to rip the football and elevate Miami’s passing attack.
