Dolphins' Brian Flores on Tua Tagovailoa: 'I'm Excited About the Future with Him'

The Miami Dolphins are seeking a new offensive coordinator, but head coach Brian Flores made one thing clear on Thursday: the franchise is sticking behind Tua Tagovailoa.

The rookie quarterback got the ball in Week 8, taking over for Ryan Fitzpatrick under center. After a 3-3 start to the season, Tagovailoa started nine of the last 10 games, going 6-3.

"A lot of attention gets paid to Tua, but I thought he made a lot of improvement over the course of the season. I'm excited about the future with him," Flores told ESPN's Cameron Wolfe.
