2024 Fantasy Outlook
Tagovailoa played a full season last year for the first time in his four-year career and ended up leading the league in passing yards (4,624) and throwing 29 TD passes. Those stats were built on efficiency rather than volume too. Tagovailoa ranked 16th in attempts per game (32.9), but his 76.8 percent on-target rate (3rd) led to a 69.3 completion percentage (5th) even as he threw 35.0 percent of attempts beyond 10 yards (4th). He averaged 8.3 yards per attempt, second only to Brock Purdy. Tua particularly shines using his strong arm downfield. He led the league in on-target percentage on attempts of 20-plus yards (65.6), completing half of those (2nd) with a league-high 10 touchdowns. With speedsters Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle at his disposal, Tagovailoa should again have plenty of downfield opportunities. The Dolphins added WR Odell Beckham (for whatever he has left) and TE Jonnu Smith, and they still have the league's fastest backfield with Raheem Mostert and De'Von Achane (combined 52 catches). Coach Mike McDaniel's innovative and dynamic offense should again put Tua in a strong position, but the QB's lack of rushing suppresses his fantasy value -- his career average is 7.2 rushing yards per game. Without meaningful rushing stats, he'll probably need to push toward 600 pass attempts to reach the top 10 of fantasy quarterbacks. Indeed, last season he finished as QB11 despite leading the league in passing yards. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Surgical effort in big win
Tagovailoa completed 29 of 40 passes for 317 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions and rushed three times for minus-2 yards in the Dolphins' 34-15 win over the Patriots on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Tagovailoa displayed his prototypical mastery of head coach Mike McDaniel's offense, connecting with eight different targets and facilitating particularly productive games for Jaylen Waddle (8-144-1) and Jonnu Smith (9-87-1). Tagovailoa's total through the air marked his first time eclipsing the 300-yard mark since Week 1, while his TD tally -- which consisted of scoring tosses to Smith (seven yards), De'Von Achane (nine, 11 yards) and Waddle (23 yards) -- represented a season-high figure. Tagovailoa and his offensive teammates will next look to dispel their reputation for struggling in cold weather when they visit the Packers for a Thanksgiving Night showdown on Thursday.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2021
2020
Multiple concussions marred what was otherwise a fantastic season for Tagovailoa last year. The Dolphins gave him an offensive-minded coach in Mike McDaniel and the league’s best deep threat in Tyreek Hill, and Tua took advantage. After ranking 29th in average target depth (7.0) in 2021, Tagovailoa was second in the league last year at 10.0 yards. That propelled him to an NFL-high 8.9 YPA, and with a 25/8 TD/INT ratio (5th) he led the league in passer rating at 105.5. Even with a commensurate drop in accuracy that comes with longer throws, Tagovailoa finished 10th in the league on-target percentage (74.0). The only thing that slowed him was injury, as he missed two early season games and then the final two games (plus the Dolphins’ wild-card loss) with concussions. He’s healthy entering this season, though, and has perhaps the league’s best WR duo in Hill and Jaylen Waddle, who combined for 3,066 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns last year. Tight end Mike Gesicki left in free agency, but the Dolphins didn't get much out of him anyway. Last season’s concussions don’t necessarily make Tua more prone to a head injury this year, but the Dolphins, who were criticized for their handling of his first concussion, figure to be more cautious if Tua is injured this season. The history of missed games adds some risk, and Tua doesn’t get much rushing production, but those are about the only drawbacks with the strong-armed and accurate Tagovailoa as a fantasy quarterback.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could return in Week 8
Tagovailoa will return to practice Wednesday as he closes in on gaining clearance to play following his latest concussion, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The Dolphins quarterback hasn't yet been confirmed to start Sunday against the Cardinals, but coach Mike McDaniel confirmed Monday that Tagovailoa is at least able to practice this week. Tagovailoa's return would provide a huge boost to Miami's offense, as the team has averaged just 10 points per game in the four contests he's missed. If he doesn't get officially cleared to play Week 8, it's not certain whom the Dolphins would use under center. Skylar Thompson is dealing with a rib injury, and Tyler Huntley left Sunday's loss to the Colts with a shoulder issue, leaving Tim Boyle as potentially the only healthy QB on the roster.
