""If you're looking at last year, my play wasn't up to the standard of the way I've been playing football the past ... three years since the new contract. So, just got to play better football. That's what that really means. There's no other way to sugarcoat that or go around that.""
""You're either a competitor or you're not, you just don't go from being a competitor to 'let me just relax a little bit.' I just don't think that's how it works. ... And so, I embrace the competition. I'm excited to work alongside with Mike and I'm excited to work with the team, with the guys. I think it's going to be fun this year.""
Tua Tagovailoa expressed confidence in competing for the starting quarterback role with Michael Penix Jr. after a challenging season with the Miami Dolphins. Released by Miami, Tagovailoa acknowledged his performance last year was below his standards, citing a career-high 15 interceptions. The Falcons signed him to a one-year, $1.3 million contract. Tagovailoa is eager to embrace the competition and support Penix, who is recovering from a torn ACL. He emphasized the importance of being a competitor and looks forward to the upcoming season with the team.
