Classic concussion! He hit the back of his head. It does not need to be a big hit. Too many receivers get the exact same concussion while catching and falling backwards except they get it at running speed.

@@traviskees2893 They did. He went through the concussion protocol and was cleared by an independent neurologist to return to the game. He didn't just go back to playing immediately after this.
“Independent” no such thing. He’s hired by the nfl, therefore he’s no longer independent. Tua should not have gone back in the game. He was definitely concussed
Yep and he hit his head again tonight and it looks bad these medical staffs and coaches don’t care about the players they’ll keep putting them out there until they can’t walk or talk on their own if it gives them a better chance of winning
And here we are 4 days later and he is being taken off the field on a stretcher. Disgusting how this young man has been treated. Where are the supposed concussion protocol during all this?
The protocol is probably why some teams/players forego the diagnosis as they would have to miss some games. Tuas is on his rookie contract in his best year playing. You want to get a big 2nd contract if possible and try to play through injuries as an injury can lead to a smaller contract.
People always forget it also a responsibility of the athlete to make it known how he feels. I highly doubt Tua would have agreed to sitting out. The dude was punch drunk and tried to go take another snap, in reality kids probably got to much heart and it lead to this
@@andrewscholten9369 It's no longer the athletes responsibility when they've lost basic motor function after a knock to the head. You can't trust that call, no matter how much they want to go back in.
Even if he’s okay now somehow, and stays in the league, we should not be surprised if post career life is similar to Junior Seau. Football is a harsh sport they’ve worked their whole lives to be NFL players so they can know they’re not well but will continuing mushing their brain because this is their life goal and everyone does it so why be “soft”. Hope he’s well that’s hard to watch
He very well may be done. He's had two obvious serious brain injuries in so little time. Each one compounds on the last. If he wants to see his kids grow up, it's best he retire.
Neither of these were severe impacts representative of their effect. He is compromised, neurologically. To avoid him out there tonight and two of put him into that game again Against the bills is completely absurd. Likely done for the year. Glad he got paid and invest your money wisely.
@@brandonvandelden7972 Almost every qb has been through this. The fact tua got back up and was trying to play clearly proves he ISNT soft. Someone had to stop him from playing. Haters gonna hate.
Watching the injury just now, blows my mind how the NFL does this …. Insane bro, Higgins on the bengals has taken some licks the past 2 weeks as well, crazy how he’s Been playing
wait, the NFL does what? The NFL doesn't make players play. Coaches ask/tell players to play. A medical team gives their stance on whether a player can or can't play, but nobody MAKES a player play. So many stupid comments out there like this. So many people saying the NFL should be punished. So many people nowadays calling for justice. Can't we go back to thinking that instead of always having to have a victim to thinking that the person who plays the sport is to blame? If a snowboarder breaks his back going down a hill, you going to say the resort should be punished? Tua plays a high speed contact sport. He got hurt. He knows he got hurt. He walked out on the field under his own decision the next game after having an obvious concussion, and you say it's the NFL's fault?!? You are a moron.
Some fields can cause more damage than others but when your neck whips your head like that with a direct blow to the back of the head I’m surprised he got up like he did. I think many people wouldn’t get up from that, it doesn’t look as bad as it really is that was a serious blow to the head. I can’t remember the receivers name but he had a similar injury coming down with a catch and it didn’t look that bad but he was unconscious and missed a bit of time because of it.
@@CB2904-l9l he had already thrown the ball well earlier. Dumbass pushed him for no reason and falling backwards can cause a concussion because of the way your head snaps back.
Definitely was a concussion. Huge Dolphins fan with tickets to Thursdays game. Tua is fine. Played well in the 2nd half and spoke very clearly and intelligently in the post game.
No team should put a player back in after they're dizzy like that. If they put him back in, he could get 1 or 2 more hits and get knocked out for the season. (And possibly knocked unconscious.)
@@futureforward3153 Its a concussion tho not a bruised rib or a injured foot. It's literally damage to the brain that can send him to the hospital and possibly even have him stop playing football for the rest of his life
@@futureforward3153 fair point. But there has to be lines. That line should be drawn at brain injury. Damage the rest of yourself all you want. Allowing him to return to that game was horribly irresponsible by the NFL. I'm Steel City 1000%, watching Ryan Shazier almost cripple himself was horrifying. But had that happened, he could still reflect to those moments. Totally different than a brain injury. Scary shit
Most concussions are caused by minor hits to the back of the head. You would think there would be a way to minimize the impact with extra padding on the back of the helmet or some type of flexible brace that wouldn’t affect range of motion.
A few players wear this thing around the back of their neck that’s supposed to keep extra spinal or some other kind of fluid in that back of the head so that the brain has more cushion. I remember Luke Kuechly used to wear one and I saw somebody else last week with one
A high schooler just died after suffering a concussion during a game then playing the next game and again suffering a big blow. Really hope Tua is all right, this was terrible to see tonight and this to look back on.. only 4 days earlier
This is the reason you do not let athletes play contact sports while they are recovering from A CONCUSSION! The medical staff at the Dolphins are negligent!
this goes to show you these teams only care about 1 thing and 1 thing only, winning. that man should have never returned to the game even if it was a "back injury". I know how this shet works man, wasn't no back injury, concussion
This is horrible, I had not seen this hit, and after seeing Tua get seriously injured against the bengals it’s ridiculous that the Miami medical staff and coaches let Tua come out and play tonight. Horrible look, and horrible for Tua and his family, the Miami dolphins and NFL let him down!sad sight to see.
Kudos to the teammates that held him back from the huddle when they saw him stumbling. If only the doctors that are paid to do their jobs were as diligent.
You saw that too. I’m a chargers fan, but got mad respect for your Quarterback Tua, hope he gets well soon, but as much as you Dolphins fans need him and the team. He needs to heal. My prayers to Tua and his family. Boltup!
I've seen players out for 2 weeks on hits softer than this one. Tua should have clearly been rested for atleast 1 game. Yet he was allowed to return to this game and yet again 4 days later to take a scary hit today. Prayers for Tua.
Tua got up looking like Joker after he got out of the flipped truck in Dark Knight and the doctor was like, "back looks good to me, he's clear to return."
People don’t understand that he could have nerve damage that never actually healed.not to mention the poor stability of his neck he lacks to keep his neck forward as he falls. Instead he got a nasty whip lash
Played football in highschool and college same thing happened to me like tua vs bills. Falling backwards and smacking your head is brutal. I was fortunate because I did gymnastics as a kids and taught to roll with your momentum. Of course that's not 100% possible. Man, he's a tough and talented dude.
The fact that the injury wasn't flagged as a concussion by the team doctors and Tua wasn't pulled for a MINIMUM for a full month to recover is an indictment on the entire organization, especially after what happened after when he got a much more severe one a week later I believe. This is why the NFL has a chronic CTE problem, zero time for the players to recover from sub concussive injuries, never mind full blown severe concussions.
His line has his back 100%. Those dudes saw him from the start and new they had to stop him. A lot of respect for those guys. Glads he’s okay Miami is a team to worry about gonna be a fun season!
His coach definitely doesn't have his back after letting him come back into this game, then play in another 4 days later and end up where he is now. This is a stain on the NFL.
I have a completely different opinion, yeah they do have his back to a degree but if I’m on that Line I’m wacking Milano and the dude from Cindy to send a message. He pushed Tua after the ball in gone for no reason, and the Cincy D linemen suplexed Tua over his leg for more of a powerful impact. Only reason why I’m saying this is because I fw Tua so heavy and have supported him even when people, including our Dolphins fan base was bashing him.
The scariest part is that both hits didn't appear to be overly violent. That means his condition is very fragile. I'm a dolphins fan and know he the reason we've been playing well, but I would be terrified every play if he returned this season. We can wait for another great QB. He needs multiple full tests and care to make sure 100% that he can withstand it.
@@derekwatson8211 his head snapped back and slammed the ground in the first one. Literally the worst way to hit your head. Also the brain is very fragile to begin with and that's with ever person.
Just looked this up after he got injured against the bengals and after seeing this I don’t think he should have even been in this game. Thats a bad call on his medical staff and coaches for letting him play. Hopefully he’ll be alright tho
Coming back to this after Tua’s injury today. He shouldn’t have played today. Smh So sick of the NFL putting profit and wins before their players. The same players that allow them to make all of this money.
The neurological or medical Dr is supposed to have him out the rest of the game after an obvious concussion but they disobeyed the nfl concussion protocol rules and let him back in the game to play.
But it was a back injury? It *locked" up . Yeah ok . He left the game and cleared concussion protocol, eventually returning to lead Miami to a 21-19 win over Buffalo. After the game, the quarterback addressed the concussion protocol and told reporters his back “locked up” after the hit, causing him to stumble.
I know Tua is a tough son of a gun and he (may have been) ok to come back for the 2nd half but sheesh you’d think the way he was wobbling that the dolphins would’ve kept him out for the rest of the game. Concussions are no joke and risk Tua’s health just to get him back ASAP without I feel truly evaluating him is a bit sus. I’m not a doctor or trainer I’m just giving my 2 sense about how I see it.
In cycling there is a technology called MIPS, short version, it helps with the sudden stoppage of the brain inside the skull, under impact. Basically a floating, multi directional liner inside the helmet. I’m not sure if it would help with the impacts that football players take, but with cycling we can crash at speeds over 30mph. Unfortunately I’ve had seven concussions and cannot risk another while racing. My concentration and short term memory have been the biggest problems. Wishing Tua a speedy recovery, love watching the Dolphins beat the odds. Fins-Up! 🐬 🏈
I have been a Dolphin for 60 years. I am also a physician with significant training in treating traumatic brain injuries. It is so hard to say this, however, Tua needs to retire from football. TBI's are cumulative and it is apparent that the impact he received should not have had such neurological impairment. This is the definition of Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy. Tua is a great human being. He needs to move on and I am sure his life will be amazing beyond football.
Good words. I had a far worse injury than this. I hit the back of my head into concrete at 22mph with no helmet at all. My skull fractured in three locations on the right side and I had suffered from severe ischemia in my brain's left hemisphere. I was in a coma for around three months - two of which were medically induced. I got a fifth of my skull removed from the right side to prevent the brain swelling from causing similar ischemia to the right hemisphere. And oddly enough, the anesthesia temporarily broke me out of my coma both times they had provided it to remove my skull and to staple the right section back on after two more weeks went by. But, I just wanted to reply to you because I have found that I have recovered surprisingly well (with some self-administered medical treatments) for what I have experienced. So, there would be hope for Tua regardless of whether or not he stops playing football. But whether or not he would be willing to pursue the few lifestyle changes required to heal the brain from such trauma is the real question to ask. Granted, there was more stuff occurring in society when my injury had occurred that only made things worse...one of which was illegal college student medical practice being done on me both while I was in the coma and after I was out of the coma.... And another issue was being fed antibiotics via IV for around 3.5 months straight....and having a 53% lactose compound pumped into my stomach via a G-Tube even though I am highly lactose intolerant (which was noted on one of my medical bracelets and in the medical computer system). But anyways, I can go on and on about this stuff. If you wanna inquire about methods of cerebral healing that brought me back to an almost fully functional state (after around 3-4 years), feel free to ask away =).

A back injury doesn't make that happen.. and now Tua is being stretchered off one week later vs the Bengals. The Miami medical staff needs to be held accountable, Tua should not have been playing after this hit. Smh. Hopefully he recovers.
two head injuries in four days; the latest one indicating potentially severe head trauma. hope nfl is proud, the dolphins as well. you prob killed this man's career
I’m not a doctor but all I needed was the dizziness and fall after to know he was concussed. I’m not a train expert but I know a train wreck when I see one.
Why doesn't football have fall training? The first thing you learn in combat sports is how to fall and protect your head (head up, arms out). The helmets are great and all, but we shouldn't be relying on them
He's out for concussion protocol again. Imagine if he stayed out for rest of this game & maybe out the following game. The continual damage playing during bills game + follow up head injury within the week has made his head way less resistant to whiplash impacts. He needs out rest of the year & maybe a look if worth coming back with heightened health risks with the compounding concussions. NFL & Dolphins really botched this but focus needs to be on Tua's safety going forward.
TUA if you see this comment... Heres a tip bro: Whenever someone pushes you back like that, try to use that momentum to roll back into a backflip hope this helps 👍

His line has his back 100%. Those dudes saw him from the start and new they had to stop him. A lot of respect for those guys. Glads he’s okay Miami is a team to worry about gonna be a fun season!
His coach definitely doesn't have his back after letting him come back into this game, then play in another 4 days later and end up where he is now. This is a stain on the NFL.
@@ThorGodofThunder420 It is sickening. I hope they get serious about preventing things like this in the future.
I have a completely different opinion, yeah they do have his back to a degree but if I’m on that Line I’m wacking Milano and the dude from Cindy to send a message. He pushed Tua after the ball in gone for no reason, and the Cincy D linemen suplexed Tua over his leg for more of a powerful impact. Only reason why I’m saying this is because I fw Tua so heavy and have supported him even when people, including our Dolphins fan base was bashing him.
And he just got knocked out again today! Without much impact! Shame! shame ! SHAME ON YOU NFL! SHAON YOU DOLPHINS!!
The fact that they allowed him to come back was irresponsible
Agreed
The fact that they let him continue to play after everyone saw this is sick I love the Game but damnnn
The scariest part is that both hits didn't appear to be overly violent. That means his condition is very fragile. I'm a dolphins fan and know he the reason we've been playing well, but I would be terrified every play if he returned this season. We can wait for another great QB. He needs multiple full tests and care to make sure 100% that he can withstand it.
Dude the 2nd one was violent, very violent. Watch it in full speed he got whipped down very fast
Well I agree the first one is nothing, the second one was pretty brutal dude
@@derekwatson8211 his head snapped back and slammed the ground in the first one. Literally the worst way to hit your head. Also the brain is very fragile to begin with and that's with ever person.
Who’s here after Tua just got wrecked vs The Bengals
And now in the second quarter of the bengals game he’s out with a serious head or neck injury. NFl and dolphins should be ashamed
Just looked this up after he got injured against the bengals and after seeing this I don’t think he should have even been in this game. Thats a bad call on his medical staff and coaches for letting him play. Hopefully he’ll be alright tho
Coming back to this after Tua’s injury today. He shouldn’t have played today. Smh So sick of the NFL putting profit and wins before their players. The same players that allow them to make all of this money.
The neurological or medical Dr is supposed to have him out the rest of the game after an obvious concussion but they disobeyed the nfl concussion protocol rules and let him back in the game to play.
That’s a concussion 100%
Who's here in 2024
Sad. If he plays again, it's the concussions talking :/
Tua had/has a concussion 100%. They said it was his lower back. No way.
The fact he came back finish the game and won shows his toughness and his willingness to fight for his team good ish tua
Most anyone would want to come back in. Should they have let him? No
@@mjay776 just admiring the courage and grit
I agree tua's got that dawg in him but whoever let him go back out is a dipshit
Damn. Head injury in this game and then again next week. Hope he recovers 🙏
They claimed this was a bacc injury, smh and put him bacc in
But it was a back injury? It *locked" up . Yeah ok .
He left the game and cleared concussion protocol, eventually returning to lead Miami to a 21-19 win over Buffalo. After the game, the quarterback addressed the concussion protocol and told reporters his back “locked up” after the hit, causing him to stumble.
I know Tua is a tough son of a gun and he (may have been) ok to come back for the 2nd half but sheesh you’d think the way he was wobbling that the dolphins would’ve kept him out for the rest of the game. Concussions are no joke and risk Tua’s health just to get him back ASAP without I feel truly evaluating him is a bit sus. I’m not a doctor or trainer I’m just giving my 2 sense about how I see it.
and now this year'S cuncution ...
And Tua goes down again but this time it was scary. Prayin' for Tua but maybe he shouldn't have played tonight.
I cannot believe the let him play tonight after seeing this. I am praying he will be ok.
Paralyzed
@@mmr0221 Heck, he's flying home with his team tonight. (which I don't think he should do, but he is)
@@mmr0221 no he isn't...stop spreading false information
@@sin7368 he actual did fly back and is already home
@@jamiewhittimore8390 uh ok...I never said he didnt.....I said he wasn't paralyzed...which is what MMR0 was saying......please read more carefully
Anyone here after he got hurt again
This poor guy can't catch a break. I hope he's okay (and yes I saw his other hit video).
In cycling there is a technology called MIPS, short version, it helps with the sudden stoppage of the brain inside the skull, under impact. Basically a floating, multi directional liner inside the helmet. I’m not sure if it would help with the impacts that football players take, but with cycling we can crash at speeds over 30mph. Unfortunately I’ve had seven concussions and cannot risk another while racing. My concentration and short term memory have been the biggest problems.
Wishing Tua a speedy recovery, love watching the Dolphins beat the odds.
Fins-Up! 🐬 🏈
I can already hear Tyler tarrabochia saying they are targeting tua so they could win
I mean, it was a blatant cheap shot.
@@bjchit no tf is wasn’t 💀
@@Bobtheglobb your life must be hard 😂
Well - I'd say that was pretty much a targeted hit. The ball was out of his hand & already gone.
@@Bobtheglobb There’s no way Milano didn’t see Tua throw the ball.
Now look what happens tonight. It's criminal to have let him out there
I have been a Dolphin for 60 years. I am also a physician with significant training in treating traumatic brain injuries. It is so hard to say this, however, Tua needs to retire from football. TBI's are cumulative and it is apparent that the impact he received should not have had such neurological impairment. This is the definition of Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy. Tua is a great human being. He needs to move on and I am sure his life will be amazing beyond football.
Good words.
I had a far worse injury than this. I hit the back of my head into concrete at 22mph with no helmet at all. My skull fractured in three locations on the right side and I had suffered from severe ischemia in my brain's left hemisphere. I was in a coma for around three months - two of which were medically induced. I got a fifth of my skull removed from the right side to prevent the brain swelling from causing similar ischemia to the right hemisphere. And oddly enough, the anesthesia temporarily broke me out of my coma both times they had provided it to remove my skull and to staple the right section back on after two more weeks went by.
But, I just wanted to reply to you because I have found that I have recovered surprisingly well (with some self-administered medical treatments) for what I have experienced. So, there would be hope for Tua regardless of whether or not he stops playing football. But whether or not he would be willing to pursue the few lifestyle changes required to heal the brain from such trauma is the real question to ask.
Granted, there was more stuff occurring in society when my injury had occurred that only made things worse...one of which was illegal college student medical practice being done on me both while I was in the coma and after I was out of the coma.... And another issue was being fed antibiotics via IV for around 3.5 months straight....and having a 53% lactose compound pumped into my stomach via a G-Tube even though I am highly lactose intolerant (which was noted on one of my medical bracelets and in the medical computer system).
But anyways, I can go on and on about this stuff. If you wanna inquire about methods of cerebral healing that brought me back to an almost fully functional state (after around 3-4 years), feel free to ask away =).
Why you lying your a chiropractor.
@@Dashawn.B To be fair, that’s the fanciest chiropractic center that I have ever seen. Did you see the pizza?!?!
Good on you #74 and #92 (I think) for being great teammates holding Tua up.
74 & 72. Regardless, they some stand up guys, frfr
@@lredd631 thanks for the clarification. I just saw the 2 at the end. Couldn't make up the first #. But I knew it was Eichenberg and Armstead. My mind just didn't click with his jersey #. Obviously that wasn't Sieler. Silly me lol.. And Yes... stand up teammates for sure!
A back injury doesn't make that happen.. and now Tua is being stretchered off one week later vs the Bengals. The Miami medical staff needs to be held accountable, Tua should not have been playing after this hit. Smh. Hopefully he recovers.
How many times does this have to happen to Tua before we take this seriously?
Damn dolphins fucked up
Disgusting he was allowed to play against Bengals
two head injuries in four days; the latest one indicating potentially severe head trauma. hope nfl is proud, the dolphins as well. you prob killed this man's career
Concussion written all over it
When his head hit the back of the field going down
I'm still waiting for the part where he reaches for his back because of the pain
exactly
Seriously. His head clearly hit the ground and by force went back up and hit the ground again . His back was not the issue here
I’m not a doctor but all I needed was the dizziness and fall after to know he was concussed. I’m not a train expert but I know a train wreck when I see one.
Damn that fall was gnarly. All his weight and moment at the end when his head snapped back can't be good
Why doesn't football have fall training? The first thing you learn in combat sports is how to fall and protect your head (head up, arms out). The helmets are great and all, but we shouldn't be relying on them
Shouldnt of been able to play tonight!! So sad
Holy crap he got rocked. I didnt see this but the injury at the Bengals game was truly scary. Praying for this man.
They said this wasn’t a concussion……….OK. Good luck with that impending investigation about that.
Get well soon, Tua
From a Falcons and Dawgs fan….
Poor guy can’t catch a break dude just wants to play ball hopefully he’ll be back on the field soon
That’s a concussion
He's out for concussion protocol again. Imagine if he stayed out for rest of this game & maybe out the following game. The continual damage playing during bills game + follow up head injury within the week has made his head way less resistant to whiplash impacts.
He needs out rest of the year & maybe a look if worth coming back with heightened health risks with the compounding concussions. NFL & Dolphins really botched this but focus needs to be on Tua's safety going forward.
Here after that TNF hit
TUA if you see this comment...
Heres a tip bro: Whenever someone pushes you back like that, try to use that momentum to roll back into a backflip
hope this helps 👍
He came back in and won the game, he’s a WARRIOR and MVP FRONT RUNNER
I hope Miami gets fined too for letting him back in that game.
The dolphins got dominated all game but they did win so props to that.
Nah, still Allen, he is playing hurt but a bigger man, in every way, than Tua TurnTheBallOva
You mean the same Allen on the team that held the L?
@@armathis2647 its a 3rd party that clears concussions... not the dolphins.
