Tua Tagovailoa will look to snap a seven-year drought when his Miami Dolphins host the New England Patriots this Sunday at Hard Rock Stadium.
Tagovailoa is a rookie quarterback, the fifth overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. The former Alabama sensation has shown serious potential since leapfrogging Ryan Fitzpatrick last month, throwing nine touchdowns with just one interception over his first six NFL starts.
The Patriots, though, have spent the last 20 years devouring players of his ilk.
True rookie QBs have started 26 games against New England since the Bill Belichick era began in 2000.
