Miami Dolphins Hall of Famer Dan Marino threw his support behind quarterback Tua Tagovailoa but added that the team must find a way to keep Tagovailoa healthy.
Marino confirmed Friday what the Dolphins told the world when they gave Tagovailoa a four-year, $212.1 million extension last summer: He is their franchise quarterback.
However, Marino said in an interview on "The Pat McAfee Show," availability issues could derail Tagovailoa's progress.
"I thought we had a very good football team until we started getting injuries, especially at the end of the year," said Marino, who serves as a special adviser to Dolphins owner Stephen Ross.
