Dolphins May Pay Down Tua Tagovailoa Contract to Enable Trade

The Miami Dolphins are reportedly open to paying part of Tua Tagovailoa’s contract to ease a potential trade, though finances remain a hurdle, per Adam Schefter. Tagovailoa is owed $54 million guaranteed in 2026, with additional guarantees looming in 2027. Releasing him outright would trigger a record $99 million dead-cap hit, making a trade, even with salary relief, the more realistic path.
