Tua Tagovailoa's Future with Dolphins Tied to Mike McDaniel Returning

Sunday, November 16, 9:29 AM

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagoavailoa's future with the team is tied to whether head coach Mike McDaniel returns for the 2026 season, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Owner Stephen Ross wants McDaniel to remain the head coach in 2026, but he'll make a decision on the coach's future based on how the players respond over the final weeks of the season. Rapoport pointed out that last week's win over the Bills was a step in the right direction, and similar morale-boosting victories could help save McDaniel's job. Rapoport also reported that Tagovailoa would remain the starting quarterback if McDaniel returns as head coach next season, and his future with the team is a lot more murky if McDaniel isn't in the picture. The 27-year-old has thrown a career-high 13 interceptions this year, but he's also averaging a respectable 1.7 touchdowns per game despite losing Tyreek Hill (knee) to a season-ending injury.
