Who Should I Start? Tua Tagovailoa or Jalen Hurts

Tuesday, February 24, 7:01 AM

Miami Dolphins general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan said that "everything is on the table, including the possibility of a trade," when asked about quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's status this offseason, according to Cameron Wolfe of the NFL Network. Sullivan said that Tagovailoa hasn't requested a trade. The Dolphins are in the process of finding a new franchise signal-caller, and their preference is a trade over a release. The 27-year-old former first-rounder hasn't officially asked for a trade, but he's made it pretty clear he's on board with a change of scenery after being benched late last season for Quinn Ewers. Tagovailoa threw for just 2,660 yards, 20 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions in 14 games last year after signing a four-year, $212.4 million contract in July of 2024. Along with his declining play, Tagovailo has a concerning history with concussions, and at best, he'll most likely be competing for a starting job somewhere else this summer.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has accomplished a lot in his NFL career to this point as both a real-life player and a fantasy QB. However, 2025 was a frustrating season in many respects. Across 16 games, the 27-year-old completed 64.8% of his pass attempts for 3,224 yards, 25 touchdowns, and six interceptions while averaging a career-low 7.1 yards per pass attempt. While Hurts still provided well-above-average production with his legs, his rushing production dipped in comparison to his career norms. After four straight seasons with at least 600 rushing yards and double-digit rushing touchdowns, Hurts totaled 421 yards and eight scores as a rusher in 2025. The Eagles will have a different play-caller in 2026, as the team brought in former Green Bay Packers quarterbacks coach Sean Mannion in place of former offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo. While the coaching change could help Hurts, the Eagles may be looking to trade away star wide receiver A.J. Brown after Brown publicly voiced his displeasure with the team at points throughout 2025. Hurts remains a quality dual-threat fantasy quarterback, but his long-term dynasty stock may be fading if his rushing production is slowing down.
