The Miami Dolphins tried to get Deshaun Watson, even at the risk of fan backlash. They tried to get Tom Brady, even at the risk of NFL tampering penalties.
They tried all sorts of ideas because, it’s fairly clear, they didn't want to try again with Tua Tagovailoa for the 2022 season.
Yet try as they might, nothing worked.
And now, perhaps, it’s Tagovailoa who is becoming the star they were searching for all along.
It’s early. Painfully early. Small sample size and all of those caveats most certainly apply.
