Episode Details

Tua Tagovailoa is coming back to Miami — only this time, he’ll be wearing the wrong colors.

With Tua set to return to Hard Rock Stadium as a member of the Atlanta Falcons, O.J. McDuffie, Seth Levit, Chad Van Horn, Mike Oliva and The Legendary Sevach debate the question dividing Dolphins fans: Should Tua get booed when he takes the field? The crew looks back at Tua’s complicated relationship with Miami, why emotions surrounding the former Dolphins quarterback remain so strong, and where the line should be drawn between sports fandom and making things personal.

But Tua’s return also raises a much bigger question: Did the Dolphins make the right decision by moving on? With uncertainty behind Malik Willis at quarterback, would Miami actually be better off with Tua still on the roster — especially when the Dolphins are paying him anyway? The guys explain why keeping him may have created exactly the kind of distraction Jeff Hafley and Miami’s new leadership are trying to eliminate.

Then the focus shifts to the Dolphins themselves. After an ugly performance against the Giants, Juice explains what he needs to see from Miami’s roster hopefuls in the preseason finale — more physicality, fewer mental mistakes, better special teams play and, above all, players proving they actually belong on the 53-man roster.

Plus, the latest “I Tried to Tell Y’all” looks at the identity Hafley may be building in Miami. Inspired by Miami HEAT legend Udonis Haslem’s visit to Dolphins headquarters, Seth examines a roster filled with overlooked players, late-round picks and veterans on prove-it deals — from Malik Willis and Aaron Brewer to Zach Sieler and others — and asks whether a team without many traditional superstars can build something around toughness, sacrifice and players who came up the hard way.

Tua is coming back. The preseason is ending. And the new-look Miami Dolphins are about to find out exactly what they have.
