MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Sunday’s matchup between Tua Tagovailoa’s Miami Dolphins and Drake Maye’s New England Patriots could be the first of many.
Tagovailoa signed a long-term deal with the Dolphins this offseason, and based on how Maye has played in seven games, Tagovailoa expects he could be going against the No. 3 pick in this year’s draft for a long time.
“I respect his game a lot,” Tagovailoa said. “He’s a rookie, so there’s going to be bumps within his journey, but you see a lot of flashes of things that he can do, not just inside the pocket, outside of the pocket as well.
