Dolphins set for 2026 reset with Tua Tagovailoa move

NFL Network insiders say the Miami Dolphins plan to move on from quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in 2026, likely via trade or release before the new league year. A trade would require the Dolphins to absorb a large portion of his guaranteed salary and incur a hefty dead-cap hit, while a cut would spread nearly $100 million in dead cap over the next two years, with Tyreek Hill’s status potentially influencing the plan under the new regime.
