Twitter Reacts to Tua Tagovailoa and Miami Dolphins’ Win on Sunday

The ‘Tua Tagovailoa fable’ has a new chapter. The highly-rated rookie finally made the first start of his short NFL career against the Los Angeles Rams today.

The University of Alabama product endured a tough outing in the first quarter with a forced fumble at the hands of Rams defensive great Aaron Donald. Robert Woods turned that into a touchdown a few moves later.

However, Tua Bounced back with the first TD of his Miami Dolphins career. Veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick was one of the few people who came up to Tua after the latter scored the first TD of his NFL career.
