"The more you can do ..." Tannehill joked as he headed to the locker room.
"It's about how you handle yourself, how you take care of your business, how you present yourself in front of the team, how you hold other people accountable," he said. "And ultimately, performing."
"My second year in the offense,Alexander Nylander Jersey, the team we have defensively, the guys in the skills positions. We have a lot of talent, and it's going to be tough for any team to match up against us."
"We have talent all over the field," Tannehill said. "To finally be getting almost everyone back is exciting for me. When you have as many playmakers as we do, it creates a lot of options."
"With the hits he has been taking the past few years, he has been standing there like a true warrior,holesale Soccer Jerseys," Albert said. "That right there puts him up as a leader. When a guy takes a beating like that and keeps fighting, you want to follow somebody like that. He's a tough guy."
In May, Tannehill signed a $96 million, six-year deal through 2020, making him the Dolphins' first franchise quarterback since Dan Marino. Four months later, he said, he feels like the Dolphins are his team.
It's one more reason for the Miami Dolphins to keep him around.
