ESPN Sources: Former Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa plans to sign a one-year deal with the Atlanta Falcons. The move now will give the Falcons two left-handed quarterbacks, Tagovailoa and Michael Penix, heading into the 2026 season.

This was honestly their best case scenario. He will probably get hurt a few weeks in though

The #Falcons are signing QB Tua Tagovailoa to a 1-year deal, per

@AdamSchefter

Atlanta now gets a viable option while Michael Penix Jr. recovers.

I think viable option is being generous. Another hit to the noggin and his eggs are going to be scrambled like a Denny's grand slam breakfast.

Falcons signed Tua the Bucs lost Mike Evans. This division is still open.

Man we better pursue a real backup QB. If not at least draft one with ideal size and a real NFL arm in the mid rounds. Anything is better than no real backup plan.

Yeah I don't think either one of their QB's will be healthy

I thought we'd have the worst qb room in the division but that trash in Atlanta will be tough to beat

[ProcessBlue2]

I give it til week 3 and they will start chanting for Tua and then he will struggle and they will flip flop the rest of the season.

Cincinnati Bengals have agreed to sign free agent edge rusher Boye Mafe to a three-year contract worth $60 million ($20 million per season)

Atlanta is going to be ass this year. Stefanski was a terrible hire. Matt Ryan and his zero front office experience might be worse.

Everyone has given up on Bowles in Tampa- likely fired by midseason. 
 

It will be us and whatever Kellen Moore is cooking up down there.

At least they brought in someone who could potentially start a game or 6 barring injury. We still have Dalton, for now. I can't fault at least trying to get better, even if it is Tua.

He's not going to be cheap.  Probably could have re-signed Mays cheaper than what Jenkins will be asking.

I doubt we get him but he's a 2 time pro bowler he should make more than Mays

[ProcessBlue2]

I wouldn’t be surprised if we got Fields as back up. Problem is, he is going to wait it out to see if he can compete somewhere

[SmokinwithWilly]

Didn't see it posted so sorry if this is a double up on this thread. SBMVP headed off to KC. 

Walker's deal is for three years and is worth up to $45 million with $28.7 million fully guaranteed, per The Insiders.
