Jonah Savaiinaea, a rookie offensive lineman for the Miami Dolphins, focuses on fostering a strong team culture and relationships to improve performance. He highlights the importance of trust among teammates, especially as he partners with second-year lineman Patrick Paul. Their offseason training has been vital for Savaiinaea's adjustment to the NFL, emphasizing daily work to build chemistry. The pressure increases with the responsibility of protecting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, following All-Pro Terron Armstead's departure. Savaiinaea's preparation and efforts demonstrate his commitment to contributing to the team's success.
"Me as a rookie coming in here, we're trying to build something - a culture here, a family oriented environment, and the closer we are, the more connected we are, the better we play."
"Throughout the offseason, me and him were here in this building every single day working, so naturally, when you spend that much time together, you're gelled like one."
