INDIANAPOLIS -- The Miami Dolphins have not yet made a decision on whether to pick up quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's fifth-year option, coach Mike McDaniel said Tuesday.
Speaking at the NFL scouting combine, McDaniel said it's still something he and general manager Chris Grier are discussing leading up to the May 1 deadline. Tagovailoa is entering the last guaranteed season of his rookie deal and has an option for $23.2 million in 2024.
"Like any other player, you factor in every variable," McDaniel said. "I think it's important to recognize we have a congruence of interests by the Dolphins and the player, Tua, that we both want him to play at a very high level for a long time for the Miami Dolphins.
