Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa reportedly agreed to terms on a four-year contract extension worth $212.4 million on Friday, July 26.
Huddle Up: Tagovailoa's return to full practice was a sign that the two sides reached an accord after all. There is some hope that a slimmed-down Tagovailoa can take his game to another level in 2024, and he should have all the weapons he needs to make that happen with Odell Beckham Jr. and Jonnu Smith joining Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Tagovailoa's lack of rushing upside keeps him firmly in the QB2 discussion for fantasy purposes, although he will deliver his fair share of QB1 performances as well.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa was a full practice participant on Friday, July 26.
Huddle Up: He was limited on Wednesday and did not practice on Thursday. His participation on Friday suggests that he will not "hold in" and will eventually get comfortable with playing the season without a contract extension if it comes to that. There is also a decent chance that Miami was reminded of what life was like without him over the first two days of practice and assured him a deal would get done soon. For fantasy purposes, he should be considered a reasonable QB2 option.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa may not participate in 11-on-11 drills during practice while he is waiting for a contract extension, according to head coach Mike McDaniel.
Huddle Up: Tagovailoa likely will participate in position drills as well as seven-on-seven drills for the time being. The two sides have time to reach a deal, and he should be on the field for Week 1. He probably can be considered a high-end No. 2 fantasy quarterback at this time.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa attempted 105 passes off run-pass option (RPO) action for 1,069 yards last season, according to Pro Football Reference. Both marks were easily league highs. Tagovailoa also ranked second in the league in both plan-action pass attempts (126) and play-action passing yards (1,145).
Huddle Up: Tagovailoa attempted 560 passes last season, so just over 41% of his throws came off some kind of run fake. There is no question that Tagovailoa is a better quarterback because of HC Mike McDaniel's devotion and success with the running game, but it also helps the cause when receivers such as Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle break open so quickly on RPO plays. Tagovailoa will definitely have spike weeks, but the lack of rushing upside makes him more of a QB2 in fantasy.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has not made a lot of progress in contract extension talks with the team, but the two sides are believed to be in the same ballpark in regards to the terms, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
Huddle Up: There is a good chance that Tagovailoa will receive an extension before the start of the season, so fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation. He has one of the top receiving corps to work with but probably will be a No. 2 fantasy quarterback in most leagues.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has reported for the start of the mandatory minicamp, according to head coach Mike McDaniel.
Huddle Up: Tagovailoa is looking for a contract extension, but it seems like he will still practice with the team during the negotiations. He is part of one of the top offenses in the NFL but may only be a No. 2 quarterback in fantasy leagues.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has reported to OTAs 10 to 15 pounds lighter and is at his ideal playing weight of 220 pounds.
Huddle Up: The narrative all seems good on Tua this offseason. He ascended to the QB9 in fantasy last year but was on a better pace before injuries took out some of his weapons. He'll be a low-end QB1 with some upside in a contract year.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa reported to organized team activities Monday, May 20.
Huddle Up: He's working on a long-term extension with the club and planned to attend either way. He ascended to the QB9 in fantasy last year but was on a better pace before injuries took out some of his weapons. He'll be a low-end QB1 with some upside in a contract year.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has been absent for most of the team's voluntary offseason work since the Dolphins reported back on April 15, according to sources.
Huddle Up: Tagovailoa's absences are believed to be related to his contract status, as he is set to make $23.171 million on his fifth-year team option. While that is a lot of money for 99.9% of the population, 13 NFL quarterbacks are averaging $40 million per season. Miami has expressed public interest in getting an extension done, but there doesn't seem to be a big push to get one done anytime soon. Tagovailoa figures to be a regular participant when training camp rolls around and should be viewed as a solid QB2 option in fantasy.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa said he plans to participate in the organized team activities this offseason.
Huddle Up: Tagovailoa is in line for a contract extension this offseason and does not appear to be a possible holdout at this point. He will continue to be part of one of the better offenses in the NFL and can be a low-end No. 1 quarterback in most fantasy leagues.
