Tua Tagovailoa is going to be put on a stabilizing board and will be taken off on a stretcher. This is awful.

The following shot was shown on the telecast as Al Michael’s noted that the broadcasts medical expert said Tagovailoa’s fingers moving into a “fencing” position after hitting the ground was a “neurological response to head trauma.”
After the dolphins mistreated Tua Tagovailoa’s head injury last week, this happens this week. This is why the NFL has protocols that takes the decisions out of the players hands. Some players will put their life in danger for the team. Bad look for the dolphins. Prayers for Tua. pic.twitter.com/W1h4ZRSNkA

Less than a week ago, Tagovailoa was forced to leave the Dolphins game when he hit his head after being slammed to the turf. He later returned to that game and the Dolphins said it was a back injury, despite the fact that he was clearly dizzy after the hit.
