Mike Vick says Tua Tagovailoa will start week one for Dolphins, compares him to Steve Young

He has a $30 million contract, the highest-selling NFL jersey and a host of endorsement deals; however, Tua Tagovailoa is preparing himself to soon take his first snap at quarterback for the Miami Dolphins.

A native Hawaiian, he was selected at No. 5 overall in this year’s draft and the organization is very excited to have him. Miami has not had a superstar under center since Dan Marino, but it believes it has struck gold with Tagovailoa.

Once a five-star in the 2017 recruiting cycle, he chose to attend the University of Alabama and be an offensive signal caller for Nick Saban.
