MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — As the voice boomed into the quarterbacks meeting, Tua Tagovailoa looked around.
“A voice from the heavens,” the Miami Dolphins starting quarterback told Yahoo Sports. “Like, ‘Who spoke?’”
This wasn’t the football gods speaking to Tagovailoa (though the parties would have plenty to discuss after last season). This was quarterbacks coach Darrell Bevell’s voice arriving from Zoom audio during the first week of August — as Bevell lay face down, as he did for more than 90% of each day for seven straight days.
That’s what the doctor ordered the former offensive coordinator of the Minnesota Vikings, Seattle Seahawks and Detroit Lions.
