The Miami Dolphins are seemingly all in on former Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who they drafted No. 5 overall in the 2020 NFL Draft. In oder to get him some offensive assistance, the Dolphins drafted one of his former top targets from Alabama, Jaylen Waddle.
A few other teams shared Miami’s approach. The Bengals reunited Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase, the Eagles drafted DeVonta Smith to be paired with his former quarterback Jalen Hurts and the Jaguars drafted Trevor Lawrence and Travis Etienne in the first round in 2021.
With all of these reunions taking place, is there any evidence to support the chemistry will still be there at the professional level?
Well, for Tagovailoa and Waddle, it’s still there, and it’s reportedly visible during offseason training.
According to Safid Deen of the Sun Sentinel, Tagovailoa knows exactly where Waddle will be.
The best part about the #Dolphins drafting Jaylen Waddle? Tua's chemistry with him has already picked up where they left off at Alabama. Tua knows where Waddle always is and where to throw to him so he can go to work.

Waddle is making a strong impact during offseason training. Fellow first-year Dolphins wide receiver Will Fuller IV has discussed Waddle’s abilities during press conferences.
