The Miami Dolphins have secured Tua Tagovailoa’s future. The quarterback agreed to a four-year contract extension worth $212.4 million, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported, with $167 million of that being guaranteed.
With an annual average of $53.1 million per season, Tagovailoa will be the third-highest-paid quarterback in the league, behind only Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence, who receive $55 million per year.
The University of Alabama graduate is coming off a career-high 4,624-yard passing lead in the NFL. He also finished fifth in Comeback Player of the Year voting after returning to full-time play following multiple concussions in 2022.
