When both were healthy last year, Dolphins quarterback-wide receiver duo Tua Tagovailoa and Tyreek Hill, along with number two wideout Jaylen Waddle, were absolutely unstoppable last year. And, with both healthy in their season debut against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, they delighted Dolphins fans and fantasy owners alike with an unreal performance in a 36-34 win on Sunday.
The two had insane chemistry all day long, as Tua was finding the speedster in stride consistently down the field against a beleaguered Chargers secondary. Take a look.

That’s just a snapshot of how good the were today. Tua Tagovailoa was 28-45 with a ridiculous 466 yards through the air and three touchdowns with one interception. Somehow, Tyreek Hill’s stat line is arguably more impressive. Tyreek Hill had 11 catches for 215 yards and two touchdowns, leading all NFL receivers on Sunday.
They attacked the Chargers all over. Take a look.
Tyreek Hill caught 6 of 8 targets over 10 air yards for 188 yards, the 6th-most in a game since 2018.
Hill accounts for 3 of the top 6 single-game yards on 10+ air yards targets since 2018.#MIAvsLAC | #FinsUp pic.twitter.com/YgtrI8zTMC
