Tua Tagovailoa 'Very Confident' in Standing with Dolphins Amid Deshaun Watson Rumors

Tua Tagovailoa isn't letting the Deshaun Watson rumors get in his head.

“I have utmost confidence and trust I am the quarterback of this team. Off conversations I've had with [coach Brian Flores], those will stay private, I feel very confident I’m the person," Tagovailoa told reporters Wednesday.

The Dolphins have been linked to Watson for months, with seemingly the only thing holding them back from making a trade are Watson's ongoing civil and legal issues stemming from allegations of sexual assault. Twenty-two women have filed lawsuits against Watson, alleging crimes ranging from unwanted touching to forced oral sex.
