No trade market for QB Tua Tagovailoa — should the Miami Dolphins cut him now?
Plus, the squad reacts to the 2026 NFL Combine, what the Dolphins might do with pick #11 (and beyond) in the upcoming 2026 NFL Draft, and all the other franchise-defining choices facing new Phins' General Manager Jon-Eric Sulllivan.
On this episode of YOUR Dolphins Squad Show, Host Jim “Gries” Grieshaber, Kyle Crabbs of Locked On Dolphins and former Miami Dolphins defensive tackle Jeff "Z" Zgonina tackle these franchise-defining debates and more!
No trade market. No leverage. So now what? If teams aren’t willing to trade for Tua Tagovailoa, are the Miami Dolphins out of options? Is it time to release him and pivot — now?
We break down:
• What “no trade market” really means
• The cap consequences of cutting Tua
• Whether Miami is delaying the inevitable
Then we shift to Indianapolis, and the 2026 NFL Combine:
Kyle was there in Indy, and today he gives us an in-depth breakdown of what he saw, what he heard, what he thinks Miami will do in this draft and much more.
• Which quarterbacks helped themselves the most
• Which defensive linemen exploded up boards
• Who Miami could realistically target at pick #11
• What value sits in rounds 2–4
• How Combine performances change Miami’s options if they move on at QB
Quarterback? Offensive line? Interior defensive line? Secondary help?
This is the crossroads.
If Miami wants to win in January, the next move defines the franchise.
👇 Drop your verdict in the comments:
Keep him. Release him. Or draft his replacement at 11.
