The Falcoholic on Tua Tagovailoa
From the article
Tua Tagovailoa, who signed with the Falcons this offseason after being released by the Miami Dolphins, has been named the starter for Week 1 against the Steelers in Pittsburgh.
STACKED’s take
Tua named Falcons' Week 1 starter; preseason work and Penix's late medical clearance give him edge.
Named Falcons' starting QB for Week 1 against the Steelers after signing with Atlanta this offseason following release by Miami. Completed 3 of 5 for 22 yards with zero TDs and zero INTs in Week 1 preseason vs. Broncos; sat out Week 2 per plan; went 7 of 8 for 95 yards with no TDs, no INTs, and one botched snap fumble in Week 3. Has 68% career completion percentage with 120 TDs and 59 INTs over six seasons with Dolphins. Finished 2025 with 2,660 yards, 20 TDs, 15 INTs, and 30 sacks before being benched final three games and released. Received most meaningful preseason work with starters and participated fully in padded practices and joint practices, positioning him as more prepared than Penix for Week 1 start despite preseason performance not enthusing fans.
