The Dolphins have been looking for their franchise quarterback since Dan Marino retired after the 1999 season. From Jay Fiedler to Ryan Tannehill to Ryan Fitzpatrick fans thought they would never find the next star quarterback after Dan the Man. Their fortunes changed during the 2020 NFL Draft with the selection of Tua Tagovailoa at the 5th overall selection. Tua showed his worth in the 2020 season, helping lead the Dolphins to a 10 – 6 record along with Ryan Fitzpatrick.
While fans felt they had found their next quarterback another door opened.
