Tua Tagovailoa's bloated contract may not be enough to save his roster spot

The Denver Broncos showed Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross the blueprint to get out of a horrible quarterback contract. You grab a fork and eat it, but the Dolphins may not have that option given the nature of Tua Tagovailoa's contract.

The task should be to try to trade Tagovailoa as soon as they can, now that he has been demoted. They will inevitably eat all or most of the contract he is under, and there is no way around that. The question is when and how much they will eat.

Most of the conversation will inevitably revolve around Tagovailoa's numbers, guarantees, and what they may get in a trade, but there is another angle that won't sit well with fans.
