Tua Tagovailoa has no intention of calling it quits
Before we get to the rhetoric, a quick look at the facts is necessary: Miami Dolphins starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa recently suffered the third concussion of his career which immediately led to renewed calls for him to bring the curtain down on his career. Following the Week 3 hit, Tagovailoa was placed on injured reserve which means he cannot play again until Week 7 at the earliest.
Now as much as many don’t want to see that happen, Tagovailoa himself has made it clear that he will be continuing his career in the NFL and moreover, would like to play again this season. With the Dolphins also standing firm on the idea that he is the franchise’s long-term choice under center, that scenario seems all the more likely to become a reality.
Where the details are concerned, it’s understood that the 26-year-old quarterback will be visiting with a neurologist this week to determine the severity of his concussion. For context, it’s been almost two weeks since Tagovailoa suffered his concussion during the Dolphins’ Week 2 clash with the Buffalo Bills. With ESPN reporting that he “feels fine,” one would think there is nothing to worry about. On the other hand, his health is understandably of great importance to the Dolphins when considering that the team is 1-7 in games that he has missed or had to leave early.
