Tua Tagovailoa was drafted by the Miami Dolphins as the biggest hope to win the Super Bowl after more than four decades. Although the young quarterback had a rough start with Brian Flores as head coach, Mike McDaniel changed everything when he arrived to Florida.

The former offensive coordinator of the San Francisco 49ers took the job with absolute faith in Tua as the franchise leader of the future. That’s why he surrounded Tagovailoa with players such as Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle to let him grow.

However, after suffering another concussion against the Buffalo Bills, no one knew for sure the future of the star player in the NFL. Now, following weeks of medical evaluations, a final decision has been made.
