New Atlanta Falcons quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has expressed his desire to compete for the starting quarterback position with Michael Penix Jr. This follows a disappointing season for the Miami Dolphins, where he lost his starting job after throwing a career-high 15 interceptions. The Falcons signed Tagoviloa to a veteran minimum contract of $1.3 million for one year. He will compete with Penix, who is currently recovering from a torn left ACL. Despite a history of concussions and missed six games due to a concussion and hip injury in 2024, Tagovileoa has cleared all necessary health provisions for the Falcons.
