“He’s been doing a lot really inside, just with suggestions on if something goes a little haywire in practice of how to fix things,” Gase said.
Tannehill’s insight has also been helpful during games. Gase revealed, “He’s been good just trying to give me suggestions occasionally during games.”
“He’s been really good with just giving me subtle reminders of some of the things that he’d be thinking of in those situations. I think him and Jay [Cutler] have done a good job of talking through stuff and Ryan has been able to get to me sometimes during a series to where he can suggest some calls.”
Gase admitted Tannehill doesn’t provide suggestions “a ton, but it seems to be at the right time.”
“He has a good feel. He knows me well enough to know when a good time is and when it isn’t a good time. It’s almost like he’s playing the game. It’s very helpful for me because he’s got a very good grasp of what our offense is and what we’re trying to accomplish.”
