Tua Tagovailoa's Falcons Reboot

It's March 31st. Welcome to NFL News Today, powered by AI. I'm Corey with the story.

The Miami Dolphins cut to a tag of by-law of this offseason, closing the book on his

time there as a former first-round pick. He wasted no time signing a minimum deal with

Atlanta Falcons for the 2026 season, looking to reboot his career down south. Earlier this

week at League meetings, new Falcons head coach Kevin Stofanski broke down the move.

He said Tua fits their system on and off the field, and they're giving him a real shot

to compete for the starting gig right away. Tua's run in Miami had its highs and lows.

He started on the bench as a rookie, eventually grabbed a pro-bowl nod in 2023 while topping.

The league in passing yards, but hit rough patches in 2025 and got benched again. Now in

Atlanta, Tua steps into a quarterback room battling Michael Penix, another former first

rounder who's had mixed results so far. Stofanski sees that fire from getting released

as fuel, drawing from Tua's college days at Alabama where he always bounced back. If

Tua flips the script here, he could lock down a long-term starting role and prove the

doubters wrong, keeping his NFL dreams alive in a fresh. Falcons uniform.
