Tua Tagovailoa Quickly Finds New Home, Will Reportedly Sign With Falcons

Tua Tagovailoa signed a one-year, veteran‑minimum deal with the Atlanta Falcons just hours after being released by the Miami Dolphins.
Miami’s move creates an NFL‑record $99 million dead‑cap hit, and the Dolphins quickly replaced him by signing Malik Willis to a three‑year deal.
The Falcons needed QB depth (Michael Penix Jr. is rehabbing an ACL), and with coach Kevin Stefanski plus weapons like Drake London and Bijan Robinson, Atlanta could be a promising new fit for Tua.
