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.
From a Bengals fan, that was a scary sight in Cincinnati on Thursday. The whole medical staff in Miami will seek repercussions for letting Tua back on the field during this game. Praying for the guy to get back on the field and play ball
I fear that his career may be over with what happened tonight he may need to retire or something worse can happen he may be more prone to it after these hits
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.
After what just happened to him, Miami and somehow the NFL need to be punished to the fullest for letting him play. I hope he's okay. I'm quite worried for that dude.

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.
Love the kids heart, but as a coach it's your job to protect the wellbeing of your players. You can't put a players life at risk over a game. Prayers going out that he's ok.
why the refs didn't force him into the blue tent is beyond everyone. the injuries they're saying he has are just them trying to cover everyone's ass. I'd be shocked if he plays Thursday.

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?

@@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.
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.
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.

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
Totally a back injury - that's why he grabbed his head at the beginning and kept shaking it. He was trying to tell us all, "this is my head. No, it's not the problem. No. No. No. Not my head. Not the problem."
The fact that he was allowed back onto the field last week made me sick, and now I'm infuriated. Poor guy's life is at stake and the dolphins didn't give a damn. Just covered it up and threw him back out there. Disgusting.
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
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."
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!
@@BucketPonds and what a mistake that seems like now. 1 win vs. bills could cost him his career or his life. If he plays another game in the next month the NFL and Dolphins really don't care about his wellbeing.
And now, we're back AGAIN after Tua hitting his head again and continuing to play. Now he's in concussion protocol again. He HAS to be finished for the rest of the season.
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.
I've done this before and THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT'S A CONCUSSION! Now maybe he said KEEP ME IN!And I'm sure the coach is thinking about the game not his health and I KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE...They usually care more about a WIN, Especially if you do to! He's gonna stay away from investigators till they cant tell if it was a concussion. Although IDK exactly how long that is. I imagine 3-5 days.
Bruh the team said it was his back that’s why he passed protocol. He should have been out for the game minimum but since they were so obsessed with beating the Bills they lied about it. It’s being investigated and I hope suspensions and terminations are heftily handed out.
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.
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.
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.
Dude hit his head so hard his legs buckled when he got up... and they put him back in. Players want to be protected and even sue the NFLPA, but neglect head injuries. This will likely be investigated.
And for those who bought into Miami's "back injury" excuse, hopefully now you see why it's important not to rush back from *CONCUSSIONS* Playing in another game 4 days after a concussion only makes you more susceptible to additional head trauma. First time his head bumps off the ground you saw what happened. Dolphins medical staff should be fired.
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 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.
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
Greed of the NFL is legendary at the expense of its players. Remember when Broncos coach Shanahan played Terrell Davis despite his concussions? NFL=Not For Long
In after Cincy- Suing Miami is the easy next step, but it’s the NFL that needs to be sued for allowing this man to play only a few days after this devastating injury. What a disgrace. Thoughts and prayers for Tua!
Dolphins whole coaching staff is about to fined/fired. No way they put him back into the game after this and then letting him play the next week just for him to suffer another concussion. 🤦♂️
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.
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.
Man that was giving me flashbacks to the 2010 ECF when Glen Davis got a concussion from Dwight's elbow and he tried to get back on D but his bell was rung and he collapsed. Head injuries ain't a joke
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.

That’s one way to look it🤨
Somebody needs to tell him to stop and rest
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.
Extra padding probably wouldn't do much
there's only so much padding can do when it's your brain that's getting mashed into the inside of your skull
Helmets only create a higher center of gravity for the head and more surface area to bounce off the ground. Not good for concussions
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

Damn I hate that. Such a scary injury too. Hopefully he has a very quick and full recovery
Bro he played the rest of the game 😂 he’s fine
@@TalkAbtLater did we just watch the same video?
@@TalkAbtLater you sure about that fam?
@@TalkAbtLater please repeat that for me?
Neither hit looked particularly bad. He's just a small guy and his body isn't built for this.
Smashing the back of your head twice in a row at the same spot is not a joke. This is scary and i hope he fully recovers.
Here after they cleared him to play for a “ Back & Ankle Injury “ .
Unbelievable it this costs him his season or worse .
And thats why the NFLPA is investigating the Dolphin’s decision to throw him back into the game
Looks like a concussion if I’ve ever seen one. Weird fall but he’ll probably be back next game
tua is SOFT
@@brandonvandelden7972 let's see you out there then! lmao
@@brandonvandelden7972 he literally went to try to continue to play
Probably not...They play Thursday night...I think unfortunately he'll have to sit out week 4...
@@brandonvandelden7972 he’s back in lmao, what you saying now
He had noodle legs that’s a concussion
I lmao when they said "back injury". Ok we'll go with "back injury".
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."
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.
Doctors are paid by the team, where do you think their loyalty fall.
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!
And they let him back into the game this is completely ridiculous
The fact that they allowed him to come back was irresponsible
Agreed
the fact he was still trying to play…get well man
Oh he came back out for the win.
@@BucketPonds and what a mistake that seems like now. 1 win vs. bills could cost him his career or his life. If he plays another game in the next month the NFL and Dolphins really don't care about his wellbeing.
Who is here after what happened in Cincinnati? Prayers for Tua!!
And now, we're back AGAIN after Tua hitting his head again and continuing to play. Now he's in concussion protocol again. He HAS to be finished for the rest of the season.
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.
The fact that he returned to finish this game is abhorrent.
That was clearly a concussion! Not his back! That’s messed up they let him play the following week
I've done this before and THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT'S A CONCUSSION! Now maybe he said KEEP ME IN!And I'm sure the coach is thinking about the game not his health and I KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE...They usually care more about a WIN, Especially if you do to! He's gonna stay away from investigators till they cant tell if it was a concussion. Although IDK exactly how long that is. I imagine 3-5 days.
This has not aged well.
I'm so glad to see teammates will grab a guy that is clearly suffering from a head injury, and stop him from running to the line for the next play.
Bruh the team said it was his back that’s why he passed protocol. He should have been out for the game minimum but since they were so obsessed with beating the Bills they lied about it. It’s being investigated and I hope suspensions and terminations are heftily handed out.
Seriously lol what are you a NFL doctor lol
He’s just a fan of another afc east team
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.
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's back in
Oof… I hope Tua’s alright.
I can't believe they said it was a back injury
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.
Dude hit his head so hard his legs buckled when he got up... and they put him back in. Players want to be protected and even sue the NFLPA, but neglect head injuries. This will likely be investigated.
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
Yeah it's a concussion, he shouldnt play until it's fully healed but since it's the NFL, start him next week
Who’s here after Tua just got wrecked vs The Bengals
And for those who bought into Miami's "back injury" excuse, hopefully now you see why it's important not to rush back from *CONCUSSIONS*
Playing in another game 4 days after a concussion only makes you more susceptible to additional head trauma. First time his head bumps off the ground you saw what happened. Dolphins medical staff should be fired.
That’s a dirty hit by Milano, he can clearly tell that the hall is out and shoves him way after
Nope
@@ragnar_destroyer4084 buddy it looks like he’s going past Tua and turns in slightly to make contact. Stupid play by Milano
@RAGNAR_DESTROYER
You have to be a bandwagon Bills fan to say that’s not dirty
@@carsonleslie2984 that's one of the weakest "hits" I've ever seen.
I'd be embarrassed if I got taken out by a "touch football" hit.
If Tua is soft what does that make the Bills players for being helped of the field every down and Quarter talking about cramps they soft
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.
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
Shame on them for letting him play after that
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.
Tua had/has a concussion 100%. They said it was his lower back. No way.
And he just got knocked out again today! Without much impact! Shame! shame ! SHAME ON YOU NFL! SHAON YOU DOLPHINS!!
That was a pretty late push from the d lineman. Remember that dude on the next meeting. Get his number!!
I like how he was allowed to return and the Dolphins and the NFL allowed it.
Big ups to #74! He's a real one he notices immediately and instantly ran behind him and supported him...
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.
the dolphins really messed this up, praying for tua rn
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
Now look what happens tonight. It's criminal to have let him out there
Greed of the NFL is legendary at the expense of its players.
Remember when Broncos coach Shanahan played Terrell Davis despite his concussions?
NFL=Not For Long
In after Cincy- Suing Miami is the easy next step, but it’s the NFL that needs to be sued for allowing this man to play only a few days after this devastating injury. What a disgrace. Thoughts and prayers for Tua!
The NFL's Independent neurologist is just a consultant, in the end it's the dolphins medical staff that clears him to play.
Dolphins whole coaching staff is about to fined/fired. No way they put him back into the game after this and then letting him play the next week just for him to suffer another concussion. 🤦♂️
Puttem back in I need fantasy pts
@@goatmilk9431 there is no way you just said that
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
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 fact that they let him continue to play after everyone saw this is sick I love the Game but damnnn
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.
That’s a concussion 100%
Man that was giving me flashbacks to the 2010 ECF when Glen Davis got a concussion from Dwight's elbow and he tried to get back on D but his bell was rung and he collapsed. Head injuries ain't a joke
It doesn’t take much impact at all when you are already concussed inside of a week
The crazy thing is he just got tapped on this play and even recent injury wasn't an excessive slam or anything.
knew youd have this posted already. missed it live. hopefully hes ok
Seeing what happened last night, this shit made me fucking cry with frustration. This shit hurts to see in hindsight….
This shits sad man, the dolphins are gonna pay for this big time. Get well Tua, prayers with him and his family🙏🏽
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.
