Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa signed a four-year contract extension. Here's what to know about him, including how to pronounce his name.

None of this matters if Tua is cleared to play. If he’s not cleared, however, the Dolphins will owe every penny of the guaranteed money — possibly if not probably with no insurance money to refund the cash or to secure salary-cap credits.

Tagovailoa, 26, suffered multiple concussions during the 2022 season, but never landed on the Dolphins’ injured reserve. His only career stint on IR was early in the 2021 season when he suffered fractured ribs. At the time, a player on IR was only forced to miss three games.
