Miami Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel praised Tua Tagovailoa’s offseason work, saying he expects a leap from the quarterback in 2024.
Going into OTAs on Tuesday, Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel praised quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's offseason work — which has included shedding some pounds and working with a new quarterbacks coach — and said he expects Tagovailoa to take another leap in Year 3 of this system.
He also played an entire season for the first time in his career as he bulked up his frame last offseason to better withstand the hits he takes on the field. He started 17 games after only averaging 11 starts his first three seasons. While Tagovailoa's new frame was noticeable, McDaniel said last offseason's goal was not simply to add more weight. 'That's a very understandable misconception,' McDaniel said. 'We were not on an offseason weight program last year.
