We are tribal creatures, and there’s nothing that appeals to us more than a simple pick-your-side binary. Democrat or Republican? Coke or Pepsi? Football or soccer? Make your choice, dig in hard, and never ever give an inch. Sunday night brought us one of the best kind of debates: a niche blood war, where the people involved stake their entire identity on it while the vast majority of the world literally could not care less. The terms of this battle: who’s better, Tua Tagovailoa or Justin… Source link

When the Miami Dolphins hired Mike McDaniel, their social media team was on the private plane conveniently taking video of his first FaceTime call with Tua Tagovailoa. “My job is to coach you to get all that greatness out of you,” McDaniel said, via MSN. “This is an awesome day for me, and I’m damn sure gonna make sure that when you look back on this day, you’re gonna be like, ‘Damn, that was one of the best days of my career, too.” At the time it seemed over the top, and perhaps too… Source link

As far as the NFL Players Association is concerned, changes to the league’s concussion protocols cannot come soon enough. The union released a statement Friday confirming it had come to an agreement with the NFL on a change to prevent players from returning to a game if they show gross motor instability, which infamously happened with Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in Week 3. The NFLPA called on the league to put the change into effect in time for this weekend’s games: “Our union has… Source link

The NFL Players Association’s investigation into why Tua Tagovailoa was allowed to return in Week 3 after appearing to suffer a head injury took a drastic turn Saturday afternoon. The union fired the independent neurotrauma doctor who was “involved” in the situation at the game between the Miami Dolphins and the Buffalo Bills, according to Pro Football Talk. Tagovailoa suffered what the team announced was a “head injury” after being knocked to the ground, standing up and stumbling before… Source link

There are plenty of questions regarding Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa‘s concussion sustained during “Thursday Night Football.” When he’ll be able to play again is one of them. Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Friday that Tagovailoa has no timetable to return as he remains in the NFL concussion protocol following his injury during “Thursday Night Football,” while the quarterback released his first statement since the fateful hit. Tagovailoa thanked fans for their… Source link

For the second time in five days, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa had a scary looking injury. This time he was taken off on a stretcher and transported to the hospital. In the second quarter of Miami’s 27-15 loss to the Bengals, Tagovailoa went back to pass and Cincinnati defensive lineman Josh Tupou got to him. Tupou flung Tagovailoa down and he hit the ground hard. Tagovailoa stayed down and the Amazon Prime Video cameras showed his fingers were locked in what looked like a… Source link

Lamar Jackson won the Heisman Trophy in 2016. Tua Tagovailoa finished second in the 2018 Heisman voting, and won a National Championship the year before. Why bring up these college memories now? Because the Miami at Baltimore clash on Sunday looked like one of those college pinball games, not an NFL matchup. First team to 40 gets the win. Defense is frowned upon. Improbably, it was the visiting Dolphins who stole the decision in Week 2, scoring four touchdowns in the final quarter and Source link

The Miami Dolphins gave up a lot for Tyreek Hill. Miami traded five draft picks to the Kansas City Chiefs for Hill: a first-rounder, a second-rounder, two fourths and a sixth. Then the Dolphins gave Hill a $120 million deal over four years. It was one of the biggest moves of the NFL offseason. That’s what the Dolphins have done. They make huge offseason headlines and they rarely pay off with playoff wins. But the Hill trade, while costly, was exactly what the Dolphins needed. They needed it to… Source link

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is a newly married man. It appears that is something he would rather the world not have learned. Speaking with reporters on Wednesday, Tagovailoa confirmed he had recently married Annah Gore and indicated he intended to keep that part of his private life as private until the news eventually leaked. Tagovailoa on the wedding: “It was very special. I don’t know who ended up leaking it, but he must have been waiting outside the courthouse for an entire… Source link
