The team for Tagovailoa and Miami are continuing to work out an extension with the two sides still being in negotiations. He reportedly turned down an offer made by the Dolphins earlier this offseason. This will be a situation to monitor, though a deal should eventually get done.

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has reportedly skipped the "majority" of the team's voluntary offseason work over the first month ahead of voluntary OTAs.

These absences are believed to be tied to his pending contract extension, as Tagovailoa seeks a deal as he enters 2024 set to play on his $23.171 million fifth-year option. While it can be rationalized that Tagovailoa's absences are insignificant considering work at this point is voluntary, CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones mentions that the former Alabama QB has been present for the majority of his voluntary offseason work through his first four NFL seasons. With Jared Goff's extension painting a picture, Tagovailoa's search for future security could bleed into training camp if he's willing to stomach any potential fines.

Dolphins GM Chris Grier said they will meet with Tua Tagovailoa’s agent this week in Indy about long-term extension.

Grier said that they are “hopeful” to get deal done this offseason & “ideal” before training camp and season. He added that big money quarterback deals “rarely come together quickly.”

Tua Tagovailoa is reportedly expected to sign a contract extension with the Miami Dolphins this offseason.

Tagovailoa is coming off a career best season this past year with the Dolphins. This will be a situation to monitor to ensure the two sides can get an extension done.

Tua Tagovailoa completed 17-of-27 passes for 173 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions in the Miami Dolphins Week 18 loss.

Tagovailoa's 173 yards were his fewest in a game this season. He still had a chance to make a play late, but he threw his second interception of the game to give the Buffalo Bills the AFC East. Despite the disappointing performance, Tagovailoa finished the year as the league's leading passer.
