The Miami Dolphins head coach told reporters that Tua Tagoailoa is the starter in 2021. That statement has silenced all Deshaun Watson trade rumors for now. The former Alabama quarterback enters the upcoming season with a lot to prove to himself and the Dolphins fan base.

Miami opens their season against division rival New England Patriots. Two former Alabama quarterbacks will go head-to-head when Mac Jones welcomes Tua Tagovailoa to Foxboro.

With the Week 1 matchup against New England being a week away, let’s take a look at the Miami Dolphins 53-man roster and depth chart.

Like Daniel Jones, Tua Tagovailoa got a ton of upgrades at the wide receiver position. The Dolphins added Will Fuller V through free agency and drafted former Alabama wide receiver Jaylen Waddle. Tua has no excuses now and will need to show up in 2021 if he wants to remain the starter for Miami.
