Buffalo Bills fans had fun on social media after the Miami Dolphins signed quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to a four-year mega-extension.
A disliked foe amongst the Buffalo faithful will be sticking around the AFC East for a while longer, as the Miami Dolphins inked quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to a four-year, $212.4 million extension with $167 million guaranteed Friday afternoon. The deal makes Tagovailoa the league’s third-highest-paid quarterback in terms of average annual value,
The fifth-year signal-caller is a bit of a controversial figure in NFL discourse; he’s demonstrably talented, leading the NFL in passer rating in 2022 before finishing atop the league in passing yards in 2023. He is, however, in an incredibly advantageous situation; Miami head coach Mike McDaniel is one of the league’s best play designers, while his weapons corps—headlined by five-time first-team All-Pro Tyreek Hill and the equally speedy Jaylen Waddle—is perhaps the best in the NFL.
Buffalo fans, given Tagovailoa’s lack of success against the Bills and the even more unfavorable salary cap situation his contract puts Miami in, had a field day on social media following news of the deal.
