Josh Rosen just had his team take a QB in the 1st round of the NFL Draft again

Poor Josh Rosen. For the second year in a row, his team has decided to pick a new quarterback of the future high in the NFL Draft.

 

It be like that sometimes for Josh Rosen.

One year after the Arizona Cardinals selected Kyler Murray first overall in the 2019 NFL Draft and decided to move on from him after a single season, the Miami Dolphins have done the same.

Miami picked Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa No. 5 in the 2020 NFL Draft, only a draft after they gave up a second- and fifth-round pick to acquire Rosen from the Cardinals.

After the Dolphins started the season 0-2 in Ryan Fitzpatrick’s first two starts, the Dolphins turned to Rosen, who underwhelmed. To be fair to Rosen, as a point differential of 92 in those first games would indicate, the situation in Miami was arguably worse than Arizona’s.

After three starts for Rosen, Miami went back to Fitzpatrick midway through the season. Rosen completed 53.2% of his passes for 567 yards, one touchdown and five interceptions.

So, once again, the question becomes what the team that is moving on from Rosen will do with him. It took until day two for the Cardinals to trade Rosen to Miami last year, and one would have to imagine the Dolphins will be open to hearing teams out. After all, it isn’t difficult to blame the situations more than Rosen and still see some upside left in the young quarterback.

Twitter felt bad for Rosen and speculated away once the pick was announced.
