Whether or not Tua Tagovailoa wins the starting quarterback job for the Atlanta Falcons this season, he was a steal for the team at just $1.2 million. The former top-five pick has something to prove after the way his time with the Miami Dolphins ended.
Tagovailoa will battle third-year quarterback Michael Penix Jr., who is also looking to prove himself as he works his way back from ACL surgery. The two lefty signal-callers have already started their competition at the team’s offseason training facility.
While Tagovailoa is still getting to know his new Falcons teammates, he looked comfortable this week at OTAs. Here’s a look at the latest highlights, as shared by the team’s social media account.
