Tua Tagovailoa Addresses Deshaun Watson Trade Rumors

Tua Tagovailoa is hearing it all.

The Dolphins lost their sixth straight after winning the opener against the New England Patriots. But the postgame takeaway was as much about a quarterback that’s not on the Dolphins’ roster. Following the tough loss, Tua addressed the elephant in the room. For weeks now rumors have been swirling that Watson is headed to the Dolphins.

Tua talked about Watson:

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa on the Deshaun Watson rumors: "I hear it. I do hear it. I just don’t listen to it." Tagovailoa wouldn't divulge his conversations with Brian Flores on the Watson rumors, but said he appreciates the coach's transparency.

Clearly Tua knows he has to play better or his days as the Dolphins starter is going to come to an end.

Saying you hear something but not listening is an interesting way to say that you’re not bothered. He could have simply said nothing.
