Dolphins QB Tagovailoa: Herbert contract 'good for quarterback market'

MIAMI -- Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa cracked a smile Wednesday when asked about the new contract Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert signed to become the NFL’s highest-paid player.

The Chargers inked Herbert to a five-year, $262.5 million deal -- making him the second quarterback of the 2020 class to sign a huge extension. Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts signed a five-year, $255 million extension in April, and Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow likely is not far behind.
