Tua Tagovailoa Week 1 Outlook - Jaguars at Dolphins

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Wed, Sep 4th 2024, 8:38pm EDT

Last year, Tagovailoa was the QB16 in fantasy points per game, even though he was the NFL leader in passing yards and fifth in passing touchdowns. His 2023 season was a rollercoaster where he surpassed 308 passing yards five times, but he also didn't manage more than 250 passing yards in eight outings. Tagovailoa was quite efficient with his dropbacks, ranking third in yards per attempt, sixth in CPOE, and third in highly accurate throw rate. Tagovailoa should open the year flirting with QB1 numbers against a pass defense that allowed the seventh-most passing touchdowns and passing yards per game and the sixth-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks.
