    dolphins said tua had back injury against the bills, but it appears that it was concussion and they let him play 4 days after and he suffers another injury and seeing him like that was disturbing, i could barely watch

    if indeed it was concussion, how the fuck can you be so negligent and put someones health/life in danger

    they better pray tua gets ok and im not even talking about getting fired, sued etc, im talking about potentially having someones ruined life on your conscience

    Dude should not have been playing. Dolphins need to be punished for this.

    I am stunned and saddened by this Miami shit. I can't imagine the original injury was his back after watching him try to walk. He looked drunk.

    I didn't watch. Part of me wants to ask for a video of the play, but the other part is a bit nervous. Was he knocked tf out, or was it just some freak injury?

    I'm gonna pass then. That's a real bummer for Tua and the fins should definitely have some sort of penalty. Pretty shameful.

    He was the receiving end of a Spinebuster. The Rock used to do it a lot in the WWE. It's the involuntary reaction that was frightening to see. I hope and pray it's not as bad as it looks coz it didn't look good.

    I think he may have had a slight concussion, just not enough to be able to be diagnosed.

    “NFL Chief Medical Officer Dr. Allen Sills said on the NFL Network Friday that Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was checked for concussion symptoms every day this week.”

    no symptoms all week, what do you guys want the dolphins to do?

    Well, the players association has now fired their neurologist who cleared Tua, saying he made "several mistakes" in clearing him.

    He was also cleared by the team doctor. I wonder if the investigation into his evaluations will also reveal "mistakes".

    Gotta always have a fall guy. It couldn't be the Dolphins coach because he was being pushed as a feel good story by the media/NFL.

    If there's one thing we learned from Cris Carter, it's that.

    Hey, it's all good. Coach and Tua are buds . If they've moved on, so should we. Yikes. I think Tua is such a good dude, he just isn't a rabble rouser , even though he has merit to be. I will say this. The Dolphins better take care of him with kid gloves from here out. Some financial security might be wise as well.

    Lions/Seahawks game going down to the wire. Hopefully the Seahawks don’t blow this game.
