Tua Tagovailoa is having a strong start to the beginning of his NFL career with the Miami Dolphins. Withe a record of 2-0, looking to extend his unbeaten starting resumé today against the Los Angeles Chargers and fellow member of the 2020 quarterback draft class, Justin Herbert.
The Dolphins, up by 14 in the second quarter, were deep in the redzone looking to score. However, a bad snap prevented Tagovailoa from being able to bring the ball up. It rolled a few yards back before being picked up by a Chargers defender and began running toward the endzone.
While he was picking up steam, Tagovailoa runs up beside him and grabs his jersey, trying to bring him down. Other Dolphins players were able to catch up and help him bring down the Chargers defender.
