Former Patriots defensive assistant and former Dolphins head coach Brian Flores clearly did not leave a positive impression on current Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
Tagovailoa made plenty of headlines on Monday with his stark assessment of Flores’ two-season tenure as Dolphins’ head coach — criticizing Flores for shattering his confidence as a young player in the NFL and praising current head coach Mike McDaniel for building his game back up.
“Well, to put it in simplest terms, if you woke up every morning and I told you, ‘You suck at what you did, that you don’t belong doing what you do, that you shouldn’t be here, that this guy should be here, that you haven’t earned this,’” Tagovailoa said during a recent interview on the “Dan Le Batard Show” of Flores’ coaching identity.
