Tua Tagovailoa has had enough with the critics of his throwing arm, and passing ability.
The former Alabama star and current Miami Dolphins quarterback has faced backlash after a pass to new teammate Tyreek Hill went viral about 3 weeks ago. The immediate narrative was that Tagovailoa lacks the arm strength to take advantage of Hill and the Dolphins’ other speedy receivers.
“For me, it’s just zone that out. We come out to practice. Everyone else — Twitter warriors, keyboard warriors, whatever you want to call them — they’re not out here practicing with us working hard,” Tagovailoa said, via Pro Football Talk.
Tagovailoa also referenced a pass he threw to Hill at Thursday’s practice, and described it something that should put to rest any questions about his arm.
“I don’t know if you guys recorded that last one to Tyreek,” Tagovailoa told reporters. “I don’t know about you, but that looked like money.”
An open, happy and a lil spicy Tua Tagovailoa on his deep ball:
