The Miami Dolphins’ decision regarding quarterback Tua Tagovailoa<\/a> is coming.<\/p>\n

Speaking Thursday night at a fan event, the first question general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and coach Jeff Hafley received was about Tua’s standing in the organization.<\/p>\n

“Of course, we’ll be looking at other quarterbacks in this draft,” Sullivan said via Ashley Dominguez of the SoFlo Sports Show<\/a>. “And every draft hereafter. But, look, I’ve had — Tua was in my office the other day, if I’m being perfectly frank. We had a great conversation. Tua has been a very good player in this league. He’s done a lot of really good things for the Miami Dolphins. You guys should be proud to have him and having had him.<\/p>\n

“I don’t know what the future holds right now, and I told Tua that. We’re working through some things. What I can tell you is that we’re going to infuse competition into that room, whether Tua is part of the room, whether he’s not part of the room. We’re going to infuse competition into that room, like we will do in every other position. Tua knows where we are. We’ve been very honest and upfront, and Tua also knows that he will be the first to know when we make a decision. So, if Tua is the first to know, you guys can’t be the first to know, and I know that you respect and appreciate that.<\/p>\n

“But we’re getting close to a decision. And when we do, we’ll let Tua know whether he’s going to be part of this or not, and we’ll move forward. But you can rest assured that we will add competition to that room, one way or the other, to make it the best that we can.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Miami Dolphins’ decision regarding quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is coming.
