Tua Tagovailoa Week 5 Outlook - Dolphins at Panthers

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 2nd 2025, 1:05pm EDT

Tua Tagovailoa is Miami's new Chad Pennington. Among 38 qualifying passers, he has the fourth-lowest aDOT (6.2). He seems allergic to throwing the ball downfield. He is 24th in yards per attempt, 21st in passer rating, 28th in highly accurate throw rate, and 14th in catchable target rate. 58.6% (the second-highest figure) of his passing yards have come after the catch. This isn't a great spot to stream Tagovailoa. Carolina has limited passers to the eighth-lowest passer rating, the fifth-fewest passing touchdowns, and the 11th-lowest success rate per dropback.
