Jimmy Garoppolo News
Tuesday, March 3, 1:51 PM
Los Angeles Rams backup quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is on the Miami Dolphins' radar this offseason as they look to rebuild their QB room, according to Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald. Former first-rounder Tua Tagovailoa is expected to be released soon. Quinn Ewers and Cam Miller are the only other signal-callers on their roster, so Miami is unsurprisingly interested in adding a veteran QB to push Ewers and to possibly serve as the backup. The Dolphins will be in on Green Bay Packers impending free-agent QB Malik Willis, but they'll be bidding against plenty of other teams for his services as the QB with the most upside in this free-agent class. The 34-year-old Garoppolo has 12 years of NFL experience, but he has appeared in just 11 games (seven starts) since the start of the 2023 season. Jimmy G didn't attempt a single pass in 2025 in three appearances.

Tua Tagovailoa News
Thursday, March 5, 8:21 AM
The Miami Dolphins have been unable to find any takers in a trade for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and his contract, according to Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports. One high-ranking team executive told Jones that he had considered taking on Tagavailoa, but only if Miami "would send a first-round pick to take on the freight of his contract." Jones writes that the odds have been overwhelmingly in favor of the Dolphins exercising Tagovailoa's 2026 option at some point after the start of the new league year and then releasing him as a post-June 1 designation, which will spread the $99 million dead-salary cap hit over two seasons and allow the former first-rounder to sign with another team on the veteran minimum. Because of Tua's history of playing poorly in bad weather, a warm-weather team or a team that plays in a dome makes the most sense. The 28-year-old's declining play over the last two years and history with head injuries mean he'll most likely be competing for a starting job in 2026 in a best-case scenario.
