Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa scorches Chargers for 466 yards and three TDs in Week 1 win as Miami QB...
Daily Mail Tua Tagovailoaappears to have bounced back from the concussion issues that plagued his 2022 season, as theMiami Dolphinsquarterback tossed for 466 yards and three touchdowns in a 36-24 win over the visiting San Diego Chargers.
The southpaw did have help from wideout Tyreek Hill, who hauled in 11 passes for 215 yards and a pair of touchdowns on the day.
Most importantly, Tagovailoa's four-yard throw to Hill in the right corner of the end zone with 1:45 remaining put the Dolphins ahead to stay.
'I was super excited to be out there again,' said Tagovailoa, who completed 28 of 45 passes as the Chargers surrendered the most passing yards in team history. 'It's the first game. You don't necessarily know what to expect from their team.
'They give us their best shot. They ran almost everything that we've seen watching film. So it feels good.'
Hill, who said during training camp he wants to be the first receiver to reach 2,000 yards in a season, got off to a great start. He had 215 yards - the third-best total in Week 1 in league history - on 11 receptions and two touchdowns.
