I think there are portions of the population just about everywhere east of CA that would disapprove of their team signing him. Older and middle aged Cubans wouldn’t be happy but the younger Cuban voters are trending more liberal and both Miami-Dade and Broward counties are strong blue counties overall. I’m sure he has plenty of sympathizers in the area. The HC and GM are both African American and the Dolphins had no QB on the roster with starting experience when they cut Tannehill. Personally, I think he’d be more of an overpaid sideshow / distraction than QB but there was clearly a need for a QB. Yet there are no indications he was a serious consideration. I think he’s done.
