DeMaurice Smith vows to pursue “every legal option” regarding the handling of Tua Tagovailoa on Sunday
The biggest concern emerging from Thursday night’s game between the Dolphins and Bengals is whether Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa should have been playing. As explained by Michael Smith on the Amazon postgame show, NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith texted to Andrew...

Here’s my issue.
I have a TBI so I KNOW the protocols because I’ve had to DO the protocols. I’ve still got the printouts somewhere about restricted activities after a seizure or TBI. Flying within a WEEK is generally prohibited.
1) Anyone connected to this who says he had a back injury on Sunday is fucking lying. Period.
2) Per the letter of the concussion protocol, Tua’s staggering movement all by itself should have put him into the full concussion protocol. He clearly wasn’t in it because no way he’s cleared to play less than 4 days later.
3) Allowing him to fly home is a scandal. Per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, Tua is scheduled for an MRI in Miami… which means he almost certainly didn’t have one in Miami and there wasn’t enough time to have the one he needs, with contrast, because those take 30-45 minutes by themselves. What diagnostic tools were used to clear him to fly???
4) this is personal to me. I have a TBI. Anyone who was here remembers how hard I went during the CTE revelations. It’s personal in part because when TBIs are minimized in athletes, it trickles down. The shit I’ve heard directed to me and fellow vets… personally heard let alone recounted, is enough to induce rage
When all this is over, Drs will he fighting for their licenses, coaches and trainers will be fired and rules will change.
And I guarantee that the Dr who cleared him on Sunday is gonna get buried. His credentials won’t save him.

The second one, haha. Hate saying this after his injury, but his long ball looks weaker than our own Bryce Perkins does.

I always thought Cam looked like a jackass in his post game interviews in those ludicrous outfits.

We’ll, based on initial investigation, NFLPA has fired the independent neurologist that cleared Tua.
This isn’t gonna be as cut and dried as an appeal to authority “well, the expert cleared him, so…”
I think the fallout is gonna mean significantly stricter new rules… they have to or youth football might collapse in many parts of the country over the next few years
