Tagovailoa won several other awards and honors for the 2018 season, including the Maxwell and Walter Camp Awards, as well as being named a finalist for the Heisman Trophy. In 2019, he suffered a dislocated hip during a game that prematurely ended his season. Despite the severity of it, he declared for the 2020 NFL Draft on January 6, 2020 and was drafted by the Dolphins fifth overall three months later, making him the highest drafted quarterback by the Dolphins since Bob Griese in 1967. Tagovailoa began his professional career as backup to Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, and became the Dolphins' starting quarterback following the team's bye week in Week 7, starting 9 of the last 10 games of his rookie season and compiled a 6-3 record as a starter.

Early life and high school career

Tuanigamanuolepola Tagovailoa[1] was born in ʻEwa Beach, Hawaii, to Galu and Diane Tagovailoa, as the oldest of four children in a Samoan family.[2][3] He was said to have grown up with an intense interest in football, with his parents noting that he would sleep with a football under his arm every night as a small child.[2] During Pop Warner games when he was eight years old, when his peers could typically throw a football little more than 10 yards, he routinely threw passes of more than 30 yards.[4]

As a child his main inspiration was his grandfather, Seu Tagovailoa, who was highly respected in the local Samoan community; Seu was regularly addressed as "Chief Tagovailoa". Seu believed that Tua would eventually grow into a football star, and he requested that he visit him after every game to give him a report, no matter the time of day. Tua briefly considered quitting football after Seu's death in mid-2014, until he and his father agreed that he could best honor him by continuing to play.[4][5]

When Tagovailoa began varsity football in high school, he threw for 33 passing touchdowns during his first season with three interceptions and 2,583 passing yards.[6] Tagovailoa said a big inspiration and motivation for his performance was how his father disciplined him, saying he used a belt whenever Tagovailoa threw an interception.[2] In 2016, Tagovailoa played in the All-American Bowl,[7] and in his regular season threw for 2,669 passing yards with 27 passing touchdowns and seven interceptions. He was also chosen to be a part of the Elite 11 roster as one of the top high school quarterbacks in the nation, where he was named MVP of that roster.[8]

Tagovailoa was deemed a four-star recruit during the 2017 recruiting cycle and was ranked the top high school prospect in the state of Hawaii.[9] He attended Saint Louis School in Honolulu, the same school as 2014 Heisman Trophy winner and future Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Marcus Mariota,[10] where Mariota served as a mentor to him when they were growing up in Hawaii.[11] He had 17 offers to play on a college football scholarship before eventually enrolling at the University of Alabama in January 2017.

College career

2017

As a true freshman, Tagovailoa was the backup to sophomore quarterback Jalen Hurts throughout the 2017 season. However, he experienced significant playing time due to a couple of blowout victories for the Crimson Tide. On September 9, he made his collegiate debut against Fresno State in a home game at Bryant–Denny Stadium. In the 41–10 victory, he finished 6-of-9 for 64 yards and his first career passing touchdown, which was a 16-yard pass to wide receiver Henry Ruggs III.[12] On September 23, in a 59–0 victory against Vanderbilt, he got more playing time and recorded 103 passing yards and two passing touchdowns.[13] In the next game, against SEC West rival Ole Miss, he recorded his first collegiate rushing touchdown in a 66–3 victory.[14] In the annual rivalry game against Tennessee, he finished with 134 passing yards, one passing touchdown, one interception, and one rushing touchdown in the 45–7 victory.[15] On November 18, in a game against Mercer, he threw for three passing touchdowns in the 56–0 victory.[16] On January 8, 2018, he replaced Hurts in the second half of the 2018 College Football Playoff National Championship due to ineffective play by Hurts.[17] He threw the game-winning 41-yard touchdown pass in overtime to another true freshman, wide receiver DeVonta Smith as the Crimson Tide defeated the Georgia Bulldogs; 26–23 claiming their 17th National Championship. He finished the game 14-of-24 for 166 passing yards, three passing touchdowns and one interception, along with 27 rushing yards on 12 attempts.[18][19] Tagovailoa was named the Offensive MVP of the game.[20]

2018

On September 1, 2018, Tagovailoa made his first career start at the season's opening game, against Louisville, in Orlando, Florida. He finished 12-of-16, with 227 passing yards and two touchdowns in the 51–14 victory, before Jalen Hurts replaced him in the third quarter.[21] During Alabama head coach Nick Saban's weekly Monday press conference following the victory, he announced Tagovailoa as the starter for The Crimson Tide's home opener against Arkansas State on September 8.[22] In the 62–7 victory over Ole Miss, he was 11-of-15 for 191 passing yards and two touchdowns to go along with 47 rushing yards.[23] He continued his efficient season against Texas A&M with 387 passing yards, four passing touchdowns, and a rushing touchdown in the 45–23 victory.[24] In a limited role against Louisiana, he was 8-of-8 passing for 128 passing yards and two passing touchdowns in the 56–14 victory.[25] In the next game against Arkansas, he had more passing touchdowns than incompletions as he went 10-of-13 for 334 passing yards and four passing touchdowns in the 65–31 victory.[26] Following the regular season, he finished second in the Heisman Trophy voting to Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray, but he won the Walter Camp Award and Maxwell Award for 2018, both awarded to the top player in college football.[27] While recovering from the high ankle sprain he suffered during the SEC Championship against Georgia, Tagovailoa put on a nearly flawless offensive performance against Oklahoma in the 2018 Orange Bowl (24-of-27 with 318 yards passing, four touchdowns and no interceptions) to lead the Tide to their fourth consecutive CFP National Championship appearance. He was also named Offensive MVP of that game.[28] In the 2018 National Championship loss (44–16) against Clemson, Tagovailoa went 22-of-34 with 295 passing yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions.[29] He also set a new NCAA FBS passer rating record of 199.4 for the season, surpassing the record 198.9 set by Baker Mayfield in 2017.[30]

2019

Tagovailoa began his junior season at the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game with a victory against Duke in Atlanta. He finished 26-of-31 with 336 passing yards, four touchdowns, and no interceptions before sitting out the fourth quarter.[31] The second game of the season was a home opener victory against New Mexico State. Tagovailoa finished that game 16-of-24 with 227 passing yards, four total touchdowns (one rushing) and no interceptions before sitting out the fourth quarter.[32] In his third game of the season, a victory against South Carolina, Tagovailoa finished 28-of-36 with 444 passing yards, five touchdowns, and no interceptions.[33] In the Tide's 49–7 victory against Southern Miss, Tagovailoa finished 17-of-21 with 293 passing yards, five touchdowns, and no interceptions.[34] In the Tide's fifth game, a victory against Ole Miss, Tagovailoa finished 26-of-36 with 418 passing yards, seven touchdowns (one rushing) and no interceptions.[35] In the Tide's 47–28 victory against Texas A&M, Tagovailoa finished 21-of-34 with 293 passing yards, four touchdowns, and one interception.[36]

Tagovailoa left the Tide's seventh game against Tennessee early in the second quarter after suffering a high ankle sprain.[37] He underwent surgery to repair the ankle the following day, and did not play in the next game against Arkansas (a 48–7 victory led by quarterback Mac Jones).[38][39] Tagovailoa returned three weeks post-surgery to play in the 46–41 loss to top-ranked LSU.[40] Despite some struggles (a fumble and INT) in the first half of that game, Tagovailoa rebounded after halftime to finish 21-of-40 with 413 passing yards, four touchdowns and one interception.[41]

In the Tide's matchup against Mississippi State, Tagovailoa led the team to a 35–7 lead (14-of-18, 256 passing yards, two touchdowns) before leaving the game after a sack that saw his knee driven into the ground, causing his hip to dislocate and fracturing the posterior wall, as well as suffering a broken nose and concussion.[42][43] He was carted off the field and flown to a Birmingham hospital before undergoing surgery in Houston two days later.[43]

In January 2020, Tagovailoa announced that he would forgo his senior year and enter the 2020 NFL Draft.[44] Tagovailoa finished his collegiate career as holder of numerous Alabama football records, as well as notable NCAA career records, including: passing yards per attempt (10.9), adjusted passing yards per attempt (12.7), passing efficiency rating (199.4), and total yards per play (9.8).[45][46] He graduated with a bachelor's degree in communication studies in August 2020.[47]

Professional career

Tagovailoa was invited to the NFL Combine but did not participate in any drills due to him not being medically cleared at the time, but stated that he had planned to participate at his pro day in April before it was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[48][49] He was one of 58 players invited to the draft, which was held virtually due to social distancing regulations arising from the pandemic, where he was drafted by the Miami Dolphins with the fifth overall pick.[50][51] Tagovailoa was the first left-handed quarterback to be drafted by an NFL team since Tim Tebow in 2010.[52] As his college jersey number of 13 was retired by the Dolphins in honor of Dan Marino, Tagovailoa chose to wear 1.[53] On May 11, 2020, Tagovailoa signed his four-year rookie contract worth $30 million.[54] He passed his physical with the team in July 2020 to begin training camp,[55] but was named the backup to Ryan Fitzpatrick to start the season.[56]

Tagovailoa made his debut appearance in a Week 6 game against the New York Jets, coming in relief of Fitzpatrick in the fourth quarter of a 24–0 win where he threw two passes for nine yards.[57] His NFL appearance was the first for a left-handed quarterback since Kellen Moore in 2015.[58] During the team's bye week, Tagovailoa was named the starter for their Week 8 game against the Los Angeles Rams.[59] On Tagovailoa's first career pass attempt as a starter, he was strip sacked by Aaron Donald. Later in the game Tagovailoa recorded his first career touchdown on a pass thrown to DeVante Parker.[60]

In Week 11 against the Denver Broncos, Tagovailoa threw for 83 yards and a touchdown before being replaced by Ryan Fitzpatrick early in the fourth quarter with the Broncos leading 20–10.[61] Tagovailoa jammed his thumb in practice prior to a Week 12 game against the Jets and missed the game.[62] Tagovailoa made his return in Week 13 against the Cincinnati Bengals, where he threw for 296 yards and a touchdown during a 19–7 win. [63] In Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders, Tagovailoa threw for 94 yards and a touchdown before being benched in favor of Fitzpatrick again in the fourth quarter.[64] In Week 17 against the Buffalo Bills, Tagovailoa threw for a career high 361 yards, 1 touchdown, and 3 interceptions during the 56–26 loss.[65]

Personal life

Tagovailoa graduated early from Saint Louis School and moved with his family to Alabaster, Alabama after his commitment to Alabama.[66] Tagovailoa is a Christian.[67] Despite the fact that Tagovailoa is right-handed, his father trained him to throw the ball with his left hand at a young age.[68]

Tagovailoa's younger brother, Taulia Tagovailoa, is a quarterback for the Maryland Terrapins. He transferred there in 2020 after spending a year at Alabama as Tua's backup in 2019.[66][69] Tagovailoa's cousins also play football. Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa plays on the defensive line at Notre Dame and Adam Amosa-Tagovailoa played on the offensive line at Navy.[70]
