Tua Tagovailoa's Career is OVER..

[@Rashomon69]

Tua - Take the money you’ve made and enjoy life while you still have the ability to remember it.

[@Buster_Chestnut]

Dude, I played football for 15 years (way too long) up to semi-pro level and never took half of the hits that Tua has taken. I definitely deal with the effects of the hits, daily, so I can only imagine what his future looks like now, let alone with another or few more concussions. I am a Saints fan, like you, but I can't continue to watch this dude do this to himself. It is heartbreaking.

[@KrichProductions]

dude totally agree

[@woodrowgodshyne1654]

This is the most terrifying thing... They just paid him that massive contract, and the 'Fins, like all NFL teams, are a business. There is a world where Miami will bleed Tua like a sacrificial lamb, then point the fingers at Tua. This is a logical scenario, considering the risk Tua and the 'Fins have treated his injuries. Worst case. I hope my #RollTide Tua is okay.

[@jarlwhiterun7478]

I got sad watching it this time. It was rough to watch each time, but this time I was thinking of the fact he has a kid and that he seems like such a good and down to earth guy

[@germanicusternus1982]

Most frustrating part of all of this is that at least two of those concussions were completely avoidable if he had tucked his chin to prevent whiplash, and slid instead of diving into Hamlin's knee.

3:47 we have a 30 yr old RB1 who was injured at the end of last year and is injured again this year. RB2, Achane, doesn't have the physical frame to carry this work load. That should have been addressed, right along with the lack of a veteran back up QB, during the off season. McDaniel HAS NO IDEA WHAT HE'S DOING

[@mjgasiecki]

It’s none of our business tbh…if Tua is medically cleared, he should play if he wants…

[@CKpremium1992]

I think Tua should do what Tua wants to do. It’s his life not anyone else’s and it’s up to him what he wants to do. With that said if I was in his position I would evaluate everything from the injury, history of injuries, future risk of injury and health problems then contrast that with what I want to accomplish in my life, what I have already accomplished, what’s important to me and ultimately my family then make a decision.. and I think that decision would be to retire plus the fact over $100 mil is still guaranteed if I retire definitely helps lol..

[@billquantrill4960]

Yeah and in 20 years when he's a vegetable his estate will sue the league. In order to protect itself the league should retire him, give him a nice going away present and be done with it.

[@IThinkJoshAllenIsHot]

Even AB was concerned with Tua

[@qubesquared6209]

Should Tua retire? No. Look up Tua’s contract, him retiring vs NFL retiring him. They’ll try to pressure Tua to retire, so they can recoup some money back from his contract. The NFL doesn’t want the bad optics & CTE lawsuits putting him back on the field. He got the NFL by the balls. I’d sit the bench and mentor the next QB and get paid all my money.

[@masteroogway4170]

as a dolphins fan I want him to retire but if he doesn't we will draft a QB this draft and cut Tua after next year

[@drt2854]

It’s not just a game. it’s this man’s life and huge incentive to keep playing with a huge contract on the line that can change not only his life but his entire family’s future. This is why I think tua will continues to play. However if it was me I would walk away and find other avenues in football to stay in the game like commentating or coaching. Good luck young Tua

[@frankthetank520]

I pray he has a long life with his family 🙏

[@1ZZ1_1ZZ1]

The comment at 4:13 is spot on and speaks to Tua's inability to read a defense, and his lack of judgement which is why he ran head first for yardage in the first place, resulting in the concussion. The man crush McDaniel has on Tua needs to end. Tua needs to go.

[@El_Rossco]

Horrible for him, but like you said he has a young family I think retirement is the best option for him

[@Remember911day]

Breaking news he is coming back 😮

[@chrisortiz3827]

Is the damage already to a point where its going to be there anyway? Should he go for the money to help the family if it is? Also someone should check on Mike Mcdaniel. I love him as a head coach but always appears to have slowed slurred speech. I wish the best for them making these tough decisions.

[@seanm3226]

[@evanperzanowski1413]

I could not agree more! So many people think McDaniels is "this great dude". He isn't! He puts his QB's life in jeporady to win football games...

[@downsouth00]

If you know about cte and the danger of concussions, of course any concussion is awful for your brain, but the really dangerous thing is getting a second concussion before you have gotten over the symptoms of your first one. It is also much easier to get a concussion at this time as your brain hasn’t fully healed. That being said, the Dolphins organization has a lot of blame for what is happening to Tua. That clear concussion he got 2 years ago where they said it was a “back spasm” therefore allowing him to finish out that game and play the next week. Then the next week he gets that absolutely awful concussion when he should have been on the bench if the Dolphins doctors did their job. That second concussion is what really changed the trajectory of his career and his health. The doctors and the organization needs to be held accountable, or at the very least the public should be made aware of this so it doesn’t keep happening.

If he decides to still play one of the most important things he needs to do is evaluate game video for days and weeks to see if there is anything he can do in his style of play to reduce his risk going forward and still be an effective player. For some reason he seems to get more concussions than anyone else. If it were me and I could do it financially, I would retire.
