BEN MALLER SHOW – Ben Maller talks about the Dolphins hitting the pause button on contract extension talks with Tua Tagovailoa. Ben says that this means that the Dolphins think that Tua may be a liability, and for good reason. Ben also talks about the media members that Bill Belichick has beefed with and Stefon Diggs becoming a captain for the Buffalo Bills.
Ben Maller of FOX SPORTS RADIO Says That The Dolphins Think That Tua is a Liability
Hey Ben! If the Fins think Tua is such a liability, why bother to franchise tag him? Why not just let him go and trade him for whatever they can get for him? Answer: they don’t think he’s a liability after all!
They’re hoping he becomes an asset by having an injury free year and warranting a long term extension. But right now they’re worried that a guy with a substantial injury every year for the last 5 years might not be physically cut out for the nfl and they don’t want to risk a guaranteed contract when he hasn’t demonstrated the ability to stay healthy. He’s not a liability, yet. He’s not an asset, yet. He’s shroedinger’s franchise qb and we have to see what the 2023 box reveals.
