Jones Celebrates in Cristiano Ronaldo Style as Dolphins Beat Commanders 16-13 in Overtime in Spain
The Miami Dolphins won 16-13 in overtime after Marcus Mariota threw a crucial interception; both teams missed key 4th-and-goal attempts, officials said.
- On Sunday, the Madrid game between two 3-7 teams was to pit Jayden Daniels against Tua Tagovailoa, but Daniels suffered a dislocated left elbow two weeks ago, leaving Marcus Mariota to start.
- Despite expectations, Tua Tagovailoa said he 'looked up to Marcus' in high school, highlighting their mentorship and connection to Oregon and Alabama, which shaped their careers.
- Mariota's career has been marked by injuries and benchings after being the second pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, while Tagovailoa made the Pro Bowl in 2023 but suffered three documented concussions.
- At a family dinner Sunday, De'Von Achane's family called the moment unbelievable as Achane prepared for the first NFL game played in Spain.
- Tua and Mariota share Polynesian roots and grew up in the middle of the Pacific, while Tagovailoa hopes the overseas game inspires young players abroad, linking their career paths.
