Miami Dolphins superstar wide receivers Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill each delivered a hysterical response on what makes teammate and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa “different” this year.
Jaylen Waddle, Tyreek Hill and Tua Tagovailoa have emerged as arguably the best offensive trio in the NFL. All three were awarded lucrative long-term extensions in the offseason after leading Miami to 11 wins and a second consecutive playoff berth.
Tagovailoa’s noticeable weight loss was a major talking point in the offseason after he showed up to minicamp looking slimmer. Tagovailoa wouldn’t reveal how much weight he dropped, but he’s listed at 225 pounds on the Dolphins team website.
Speaking to Taylor Rooks ahead of the Dolphins’ Week 2 home game against the AFC East rival Buffalo Bills, Waddle and Hill were asked what exactly is “different” about Tua Tagovailoa this season.
Hill responded with “Ozempic”, but Waddle’s reaction was even more epic.
“Diet….He looks slimmer,” Waddle told Rooks. “I tell him I need that chubby Tua back, man.”
Tua Tagovailoa has put extensive work in the gym to maximize his condition and on-field performance over the last two years. After suffering three concussions in 2022, he began practicing jiu-jitsu to reduce the risk of head-related injuries.
The results paid off tremendously, too. Tagovailoa and Hill each had career years, and Waddle caught 72 passes for 1,014 yards and four touchdowns (his third straight 1,000-yard season) despite missing three games.
Tua Tagovailoa & Dolphins Look To End Frustrating Playoff Win Drought
With the Detroit Lions winning two postseason games last year, they snapped a humiliating 32-year drought without a playoff victory. Now, the Dolphins are the unfortunate owners of the longest playoff win drought, having last won a postseason contest in 2000.
The Dolphins have made significant progress since drafting Tagovailoa fifth overall in 2020, recording four straight winning seasons. But the bar has been raised, and 2024 won’t be considered a success unless Miami ends its playoff win drought once and for all.
