After the Dolphins unexpectedly fired coach Brian Flores on Monday, Miami’s plan is to land a new head coach who believes in quarterback Tua Tagovailoa being the team’s signal caller.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that Tagovailoa is expected to be the starting quarterback for the Dolphins in the 2022 season. It signals a big move for Miami as the Dolphins were one of the potential landing spots linked to trading for Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson.
However, much of the Watson’s interest was centered around Flores. His firing came after reports surfaced of disagreements with Dolphins general manager Chris Grier over personnel decisions that include drafting Tagovailoa.
