Dolphins Sign Rookie QB Gabbert Amid Tua Tagovailoa Injury Concerns

The Miami Dolphins face significant concerns about quarterback Tua Tagovailoa’s health, as he has suffered multiple concussions and missed games due to injuries, raising questions about his long-term viability despite his talent and leadership. To address these concerns, the Dolphins have bolstered their quarterback depth by signing undrafted rookie Brett Gabbert, younger brother of former NFL quarterback and two-time Super Bowl champion Blaine Gabbert. Alongside Tagovailoa, the Dolphins’ quarterback room now includes Zach Wilson and Quinn Ewers, reflecting the team's efforts to prepare for potential injuries and maintain competitiveness. Tagovailoa’s 2023 season was his healthiest and most productive, but injury setbacks in 2024 limited his availability, highlighting the need for reliable backups. Despite skepticism about his durability, coaching staff continue to express confidence in Tagovailoa’s skills, leadership, and ability to elevate the team’s passing game when healthy. The Dolphins' success in 2025 will heavily depend on Tagovailoa staying on the field and the effectiveness of their expanded quarterback roster.
