Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa had an impressive showing over the weekend. The Pro Bowler threw for 466 yards and three touchdowns against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Dolphins went on to defeat the Chargers, 36-34, in Week 1. Despite his solid day throwing the football, Tagovailoa seems to still have his share of doubters, specifically as it relates to his ability to throw the ball down the field.

But Tagovailoa said he is not concerned about anyone who may doubt his throwing abilities.

"I don’t care," Tagovailoa said when asked about those who question whether he can throw the deep ball. "I mean, I don’t care – 466. That’s what 466 is if I can’t throw deep. Thanks."
