Tua Tagovailoa Makes Big Change
Tua Tagovailoa made a big change recently that is expected to greatly impact how he will ultimately fare in his professional career.
With his injuries being a big concern area heading into this year’s draft, his agent recently revealed how that was all addressed.
“You have to make an adjustment as all quarterbacks do,” Leigh Steinberg said.
“And one of the things he’s worked with Trent Dilfer on is how not to take a hit and how to be safer in the game.
“At Alabama, Nick Saban has said Tua tried to take everything on himself and put his body at risk. When you go to the next level he’s worked very hard on a whole system of dropping back and releasing the ball that will help him not get hit as much.”
Many expect the Miami Dolphins to take Tagovailoa with the fifth overall selection in the 2020 NFL Draft.
