    Adam Schefter seems to think it is going to happen..

    im actually legit shocked by this that the dolphins are willing to absorb so much dead money between chubb, hill and tua. But i guess if youre going to do it, it has to be on the rebuilding year

    Hasn't been a doubt in my mind since I talked about it 6
    5-6 weeks ago.

    I think it's the right move UNLESS a clear trade partner emerges. If we can trade him away while paying a chunk of his salary, so be it. I think the only clear destination would be to the Jets...and I'd be thrilled to see that happen.

    Didn't see it as a possibility, but if we can do it then LFG.

    Honestly think its career over for Tua. I dont think he will accept a backup role making qb vet minimum and i dont see a single team wanting Tua as a franchise qb.

    he has made life changing money, and still has 54 million guaranteed with an additional 3 million roster bonus coming for him in less than 2 weeks.

    Time to retire and preserve whats left of your brain

    That would definitely be the smartest move if his ego would allow him to call it quits. It has to be really hard to just walk away though after your identity has been football for over a decade.

    Longer than that. Think about it. Most of the NFL players have been playing football since Pop Warner, that's 20 years (in Tua's case)

    I dont think he will have a choice to stick around as a backup; hes going to get the Tebow/Kaepernick treatment.. teams will stay away.
