Tagovailoa Booed in Miami Return, Leads Falcons to Win

Tua Tagovailoa returned to Hard Rock Stadium on Friday night and was met with a chorus of boos from Miami Dolphins fans, but the Atlanta Falcons quarterback maintained his affection for the city where he spent the first six seasons of his NFL career. In a preseason matchup, Tagovailoa completed seven of eight passes for 95 yards to help lead the Falcons to a 17-12 victory over his former team. The reception was a stark reminder of the complicated legacy Tagovailoa left in Miami after being selected fifth overall in the 2020 NFL Draft.
