MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – The Miami Dolphins won’t kick off the 2025 season until September, but the NFL released the first list of its annual Top 100 rankings on Friday – with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa coming in at No. 91.

Players across the league vote to determine the list.
Tagovailoa’s ranking dropped significantly from No. 36 last season, but this shouldn’t come as a surprise – as the former Alabama standout missed six and a half games in 2024 due to a concussion and hip injury.
The Dolphins averaged just 13.3 points per game and went 2-4 in the games Tagovailoa missed, compared to a 6-5 mark and scoring 24.1 points per game when he was active.
Tagovailoa checked in at No. 82 prior to the 2023 season, easily his best in a Dolphins uniform – leading the league in passing yards (4,624).
As the Dolphins look for their first AFC East title since 2008 and first playoff win since 2000, Tagovailoa’s availability moving forward will be crucial to the franchise’s trajectory.
The final list is scheduled for Sept. 1.
Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill earned the No. 1 spot last season – becoming the first wide receiver to get the top spot in the annual rankings since their inception in 2011.
