Tua Tagovailoa of the Miami Dolphins suffered a bad head injury last night and if you were watching the game on TV, then you would know that the aftermath was scary. He ended up going into a fencing position and was unable to get up on his own. Team doctors took him off on a stretcher where he was then brought to a nearby hospital.
Eventually, Tua was allowed out of the hospital and he had to wear a neckbrace while traveling home with his team. Of course, this injury is made worse by the face that he injured his head last week. The team insisted he was fine, but it is clear that he wasn’t.
Now, the NFLPA is looking into legal action, as this could be malpractice on the part of the Dolphins. The NFLPA is there to protect the players, and sometimes, these players need to be protected by their teams, who only operate within their best interests. Most of the time, that means compromising the health of players, which you never want to see.
It remains to be seen what the NFLPA’s options will be, especially since an investigation claims that Tua was placed through the proper protocols.
