Tua Tagovailoa feels ‘very confident’ as Dolphins’ QB, despite trade rumors

Tua Tagovailoa is not letting external factors affect him.

Miami is one of a few NFL teams trying to enhance its quarterback position. The Dolphins have been linked for a while to trade rumors for Deshaun Watson. Teams want a splash move for fans to get behind, but Watson is facing 22 active cases of sexual assault against him. Regardless of national media criticism, Tagovailoa had one message for reporters after Wednesday’s practice.

“I don’t base my emotions on who says anything about me,” he said. “I can only do my job. It’s out of my control, but I have the utmost confidence and trust that I am the quarterback of this team.
