Tua Tagovailoa Wears Number One for Falcons

0:00On March 28th, the Atlanta Falcons just revealed a new quarterback, Tua Taggle Valoa, will rock the number one jersey next season. While they haven't dropped numbers for the rest of their 2026 free agency class, this one's official via an NFL jersey social media post. Tua grabs it after the team sign him to the veteran minimum following his release from Miami. Tua wore number one since joining the dolphins as a top five pick back in 2020. For six seasons there, he threw for nearly 18,500 yards, 120 touchdowns, and just 59 picks in, 78 games. Falcons needed a steady vet after cutting Kirk Cousins. Fans are buzzing about this move, filling a big gap at the position. It also frees up the number since Darnel Mooney, who had it the last two years, got released and inked a one year 10 million dollar deal with the New York Giants. Now Tua steps into a real battle for the starting spot against third year guy, Michael Pinnock's Junior.
