Via 247 sports: 

Will Miami unretire Dan Marino’s iconic No. 13 and let Tagovailoa don the familiar numeral? That’s a stretch, but Tagovailoa doesn’t mind. He’s ready to compete for the job with any numbers under center.

“For me, I’m not too worried about what number I have. I understand No. 13 is retired and it should be. Dan Marino is the GOAT, he’s like the mayor out there. I have much respect for him. Whatever number I’m given by that organization, 78 or 99, I’ll wear it. I just want to have the opportunity to go out there and ball.”

Great answer. 

Tua has the right mentality heading into his rookie season.
