FFToday's Take:Tua has struggled this season including throwing the most INTs (15) among all quarterbacks and with the Dolphins out of the playoff race, a change has been made. Ewers was drafted in the 7th round back in April and will be making his first NFL start against the Bengals. This will case some doubt on the fantasy value of Jaylen Waddle and TE Darren Waller. Tagovailoa is due $54 million fully guaranteed in 2026.
