Tua Tagovailoa is thriving under 1st-year coach Mike McDaniel.

The Miami Dolphins improved to 8-3 on Sunday after defeating the Houston Texans 30-15. Tagovailoa had another efficient game, finishing 22-of-36 for 299 yards and 1 TD.

After the game, Tagovailoa was asked by CBS Sports what it was like to play with McDaniel. โ€œWell, having someone that believes in you makes all the difference,” said Tagovailoa. “Having someone that calls me randomly just telling me how much I mean to him and the things he’s trying to accomplish and we are trying to accomplish as a team, it’s cool, I’ve never had that.”

Tagovailoa is in the midst of his best season as a pro. With still 6 games to play in the regular season, Tagovailoa is already approaching a career-high in passing yards.

The Dolphins will next travel to take on the San Francisco 49ers.
