04/22/20 - QB *Tua Tagovailoa, Jr/2020, Alabama

A little more than 24 hours before the biggest day of his life, Tua Tagovailoa has seen and heard a lot of the public aspersions of his game, be it the legitimate durability concerns or the manufactured critique that he's simply a product of Alabama's superior offensive talent. How well-founded those concerns may be and what impact they have on the former Crimson Tide quarterback's draft stock as a potential Top-5 pick Thursday evening is not yet known, but Tagovailoa is doing his best to keep his head held high and focused squarely on what's ahead for him. "I think when you start to pay attention to those things, that's when things start to go in the wrong direction," Tagovailoa told the Montgomery Advertiser during a promotional interview on behalf of Lowe's. "Now at times, I do see them, but it's all about what you do from there. You're either going to react to it or you're going to brush it off and keep doing what you do. I mean, I see it and some of it I hear as well, but it's what you do from there, what you do next (in response that matters)."

A week ago, his intelligence was questioned when a faulty report about Tagovailoa posting a 13 on the infamous Wonderlic test - the score was from a practice Wonderlic taken as a sophomore - when in reality he scored just below the average of 20 when he took the test in February. Former Texas quarterback Chris Simms has been among Tagovailoa's biggest critics, citing his less-than-idyllic height (6-feet), his arm strength and that his stats were the result of the system and talent he was surrounded by at Alabama to suggest he might not be worth a Top-5 pick. Meanwhile, former NFL general manager Mike Lombardi and other NFL insiders reported at least two teams had failed Tagovailoa's medical evaluation based on their own particular aversion to health risks after he was cleared to resume all football activities in early March following his mid-November hip surgery. "For me, it's OK regardless if it's true or if it's not true," Tagovailoa said. "I'm stepping into a new animal, I'm stepping into a new world, and given the circumstances with COVID-19 as well, it's a time where we've got to adapt to change." - Montgomery Advertiser
