While he has performed at a Pro Bowl level, injuries prevented Tua Tagovailoa from truly maximizing his potential during his first five seasons in the NFL. As he approaches his sixth season, the Miami Dolphins ' quarterback acknowledged that he adjusted his mindset as he looks to place a higher priority on his safety.

The Miami Dolphins signed quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to a massive extension last year, and one writer says it is one of the league's worst.

That concussion sidelined Tagovailoa four games as the Dolphins sank to an early 2-4 start to the 2024 season. Tagovailoa did return in Week 8 and proceeded to start nine more games last season, but he missed the final two contests with a hip injury.
