"The 28-year-old quarterback will be moving one state north to join the Falcons, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. As expected, Tagovailoa will receive a one-year, veteran-minimum deal in Atlanta, per CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones, as Miami is still paying him $56MM this season."
"He will join fellow lefty Michael Penix in a Falcons quarterback room that should soon lose Kirk Cousins. In fact, Tagovailoa projects as the team's bridge starter as Penix works his way back from knee surgery, filling a role that could have kept Cousins in Atlanta."
Tua Tagovailoa was released by the Miami Dolphins and quickly signed with the Atlanta Falcons on a one-year veteran-minimum contract. Miami continues paying Tagovailoa $56 million this season. The 28-year-old quarterback joins the Falcons' quarterback room alongside fellow left-handed quarterback Michael Penix, who is recovering from knee surgery. Tagovailoa will serve as the team's bridge starter while Penix works his way back to full health. The Falcons are expected to part ways with Kirk Cousins, and Tagovailoa fills the role Cousins previously held. This opportunity allows Tagovailoa to choose his next team, unlike his situation the previous offseason.
