Tua Tagovailoa is heading to the Atlanta Falcons.
After being informed the Miami Dolphins were going to release him, Tagovailoa and the Falcons agreed on a one-year deal, a person with knowledge of the quarterback’s contract told The Associated Press on Monday.
The Falcons also agreed on a two-year contract with wide receiver Jahan Dotson, according to a person with knowledge of that deal.
Both people spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the contracts can’t be finalized until the new league year begins on Wednesday.
Tagovailoa and Dotson will join a Falcons team that has undergone a significant leadership overhaul following an 8-9 season.
