Tua Tagovailoa nominated for FedEx Air NFL Player of the Week for impressive performance vs. Chargers

Yesterday, Tua Tagovailoa threw for 466 yards and three touchdowns in a 36-34 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, becoming the fourth quarterback in league history to have two 450+ yards and three touchdown performances in their first four seasons.
