Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa (born May 9, 1999) is an American football defensive end who is currently a graduate assistant for the LSU Tigers. He played college football for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Tagovailoa-Amosa is a first cousin of Miami Dolphins quarterback and former Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa,[1] while his older brother Adam Amosa-Tagovailoa played as an offensive tackle for the Navy Midshipmen.[2] The difference in the surname with his brother Adam is the result of the profound attachment to the Samoan roots of their family: they are both sons of Tulileie and Saipeti Amora, with their mother, daughter of the great chief Seu Tagovailoa, who wanted one of her nephews to carry on the name of the own family and so it was that Myron already had a double surname at birth, unlike his brother Adam who only had his father's (Amosa). When Seu Tagovailoa died in 2014, his mother Saiupeti wanted all her children to have their grandfather's surname and so Adam also changed his to Amosa-Tagovailoa[3].
