Jared Goff’s Cold Weather Breakthrough | NFL News

0:00On September 7th, alright, so the Falcons have officially named Tuha, Tagaviloa, our starting quarterback. This is a big deal because he's going to be their sixth different guy under center for a week one in a row. He beat out Michael Pennex Jr. for the job and will see him make his debut this Sunday against the Steelers. Now this whole quarterback situation has been a bit of a rollercoaster. Tagaviloa, who's 28, was released by the dolphins last year and then signed a one-year deal with Atlanta. Pennex on the other hand was dealing with another knee injury and couldn't really get going until late in training camp, missing out on a lot of the early action. Tagaviloa had a much clearer path to the starting role. Getting almost a full training camp and playing in two preseason games, his performance was a bit up and down though. He had some trouble with snaps, something that followed him from Miami, but he also showed flashes of what he can do, throwing for over a hundred. Guards in limited action.

1:00Remember, Tagaviloa had some really strong years with the dolphins even winning a passing yard's crown. But last season was rough, with a lot of interceptions and Miami decided to move on. Now he's got a fresh start in Atlanta with some serious talent around him like Bijan Robinson and Drake London. The big question mark for Tuha is always health as he's only played a full 17 game season once. So for now, he's got the opportunity to prove he can be the answer to the Falcons long standing quarterback issues.
