Dolphins’ Tua Tagovailoa FaceTimed His Parents From The Field After Making His First Appearance In NFL

(CBSMiami)- Dolphins fans had a great Sunday. The team dominated the New York Jets 24-0, recording the first shutout of the 2020 season and, rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa made his first appearance, coming in to finish out the final two minutes with the game out of reach.

For Tagovailoa, it was a moment long in the making, his first time back on a football field in a game since suffering a hip injury while playing for Alabama in November of 2019. While he threw just two passes, completing both for a total of nine yards, it was Tagovailoa’s first NFL action and he made sure to soak it in after the game.
