Tua Tagovailoa has had a whirlwind of a season. He suffered multiple concussions during the season, while taking hits and ensuring that the Miami Dolphins qualified for the playoffs. His performances earned him a spot in the Pro Bowl. However, he will not make it there as it turns out that he is still in concussion protocol. Given how serious his concussions have been, including one where he was not taken out of the game, it paints a worrying picture.

He underwent high ankle surgery during his time in college in Alabama. He underwent surgery after dislocating his hip as well. He also suffered rib injuries during his time with the Dolphins. That is in addition to probably getting concussed thrice this season.Emmanuel Acho said it best when he explained how Luke Kuechly was forced to give up the game at the age of 28 because he had suffered three concussions in his career. That is the same number that Tua has had this season.Emmanuel Acho@EmmanuelAchoI watched my draft-mate, Luke Kuechly, retire at age 28 after three concussions.Tua Tagovailoa shouldn’t play again this year, there’s no exception. #FinsUp 7741726I watched my draft-mate, Luke Kuechly, retire at age 28 after three concussions.Tua Tagovailoa shouldn’t play again this year, there’s no exception. #FinsUp https://t.co/yXloYnlZREHowever, there were others who said that his retirement should not be a forgone conclusion. They argued that the choice should rest with Tua Tagovailoa alone and that he should be responsible for the decision.Ben Maller@benmallerWe have many dopes getting social media clout advising Tua Tagovailoa to retire from the Dolphins, it’s nonsense, Tua is gonna do what’s best for Tua, he knows the risks of football.
