If, as it appears, the Dolphins will be moving on from quarterback Tua Tagovailoa after the 2025 season, the most obvious offramp entails cutting him on the first day of the 2026 league year with a post-June 1 designation.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa was criticized by J.J. Watt after being seen sharing a postgame laugh with Pittsburgh Steelers CB - and former teammate - Jalen Ramsey.

The NFL world was set on fire when Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel made the decision to bench Tagovailoa in favor of rookie Quinn Ewers for the remainder of the season. Not only was Tagovailoa benched, he was made the QB3 behind Ewers and Zach Wilson.

Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals will mark a new era in Miami Dolphins football as rookie 7th round draft pick Quinn Ewers will get the start for the team, and in doing so, will get to audition for an opportunity to be the team’s starting quarterback in 2026.
