NFL analyst predicts more quarterback trades, raises doubts about Tua Tagovailoa’s future with Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons, which play in the National Football League (NFL), have yet to announce their starting quarterback.

The team's head coach, Kevin Stefanski, has the option to choose between Michael Penix Jr. and Tua Tagovailoa, ahead of the Falcons' Week 1 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

At a time when one of the recent unresolved League stories is about to unravel, Casino Guru News spoke to the award-winning NFL reporter, insider and analyst, Jason La Canfora.

In an exclusive interview, La Canfora argued that some League insiders view Tagovailoa as a backup-level quarterback and predicted he may not finish the season with his current team.

"I don’t believe Tua Tagovailoa makes it through the season. I don’t think you’re getting much in return for him. He may be a guy who wants Michael Pennix Jr. back and looks healthy; they just move on from," the NFL insider and analyst explained.

La Canfora continued: "Too many people in this league have told me they think Tua is a kind of a middling backup at this point in time."

The award-winning NFL reporter with more than 20 years of experience also predicted that more quarterback trades are coming.

"I bet we get at least one before Week 1 and several within the 1st 4 to 6 Weeks of the season," La Canfora said in conclusion.
