Anonymous Dolphins Player Dishes Harsh Critique of QB Tua Tagovailoa

After missing the postseason for their fifth straight season, the Dolphins were compelled to choose between second-year head coach Brian Flores (24-25) or quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to refine their game plan for success.

With Flores out the door, the franchise seemingly made its commitment to Tua but the entire team doesn't appear to be on board with the decision.

Chatting with the Sun-Sentinel, an unnamed Dolphins player spoke out on his starting quarterback with honest feedback on the franchise's uncertain prospects under Tua.

"He can't make every throw," the Dolphins defender said, as relayed by Fox News' Daniel Canova. "He's only going to take us so far. I'm wasting my career here if that's what we're doing."

Miami has been dubbed a top landing spot for Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson to choose from.

His rumored connection with Flores now moves the Dolphins to the outskirts in landing Watson.

"Watson's an elite quarterback now," the player added. "We're ready to win."

Having been benched twice in his rookie season by Flores, Tua's status on the team as its premier starter has been far from set — often relegated to the backup's role.

Completing 66.2 percent of his passes in his first two seasons (fifth-highest total in NFL history, per CBS Sports), Tua's has presented a foundation for Miami to develop but still lacks the NFL pedigree to carry an offense on his own.

With the 2020 class of drafted quarterbacks (i.e., Justin Herbert, Joe Burrow) already making their mark in the league, the Dolphins must prioritize building a system around Tua to ultimately determine if he's their guy. Or live with the regret of wrongfully firing Flores.
