The Miami Dolphins have until May 1 to decide whether to exercise the fifth-year option on the contract of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, and it sounds like there's some uncertainty regarding the impending decision.
Per ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques, Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said during his press conference at the NFL combine on Tuesday that he and general manager Chris Grier are still evaluating things when it comes to the option, which would pay Tagovailoa $23.2 million for the 2024 season.
"Like any other player, you factor in every variable," McDaniel said. "I think it's important to recognize we have a congruence of interests by the Dolphins and the player, Tua, that we both want him to play at a very high level for a long time for the Miami Dolphins.
