Fan sends hilarious letter to Adam Schefter about pronouncing Tua Tagovailoa’s name, gets it dead wrong
Published:
Adam Schefter and Field Yates received an interesting letter from a fan this week.
In the letter, the fan congratulates both Schefter and Yates for their careers at ESPN so far. However, they also give what they think is the correct pronunciation of former Alabama QB and current Dolphins QB Tua Tagavailoa’s name.
However, they get it wrong, as you can see below:

Schefter was quick to correct the fan that sent the letter by posting a video of Tagavailoa when he was still in college at Alabama giving the correct way to pronounce his name, which is “tung-oh-vai-loa”:
