Tyreek Hill once again makes a case for his quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. The Miami Dolphins wide receiver makes a bold case

Munich – Tyreek Hill has publicly come out in support of his quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, calling him the “most accurate quarterback” in the NFL.

When the star receiver of the Miami Dolphins was a guest on the talk show “First Take” on “ESPN”, he named the reason for his move to the Miami Dolphins.

And it was apparently Tua: “Zach Wilson is not a bad guy either, but I preferred to play with the most accurate quarterback in the NFL,” explained Hill, who had also been linked to the Jets before his Dolphins engagement.

The top receiver justified his – admittedly daring – thesis: “Tua is obviously not a classic gunslinger among quarterbacks, but if you pay attention to his game, you notice that everything is spot-on. His timing on the passes is right – everything is on point with him. He works damn hard. “

Tagovailoa ridiculed in past

Good words for Tagovailoa, who has also often been ridiculed in the past for his passing.

At the beginning of the offseason, the Dolphins released practice videos of the playmaker in which the passes did not always arrive as desired. Many fans criticised the quarterback as a result – Hill, on the other hand, came to his teammate’s defence at the time.

A look at Tagovailoa’s numbers and stats shows that Hill is actually right in what he says about passing accuracy, at least in part. According to Pro Football Focus, Tua led the league in short passes with a 71.3 percent accuracy rate.

Tua really the most accurate quarterback in the NFL?

However, he is far from the best at completions. According to a “CBS” statistic, he is tied for 19th out of 37 quarterbacks with a 66.2 percent completion rate.

Nonetheless, Hill continues to believe in his quarterback, even saying that Tua “throws one of the nicest balls I’ve caught in my life.” He is also said to be more accurate than Hill’s ex-quarterback partner Patrick Mahomes with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Another daring thesis.
