Riiiight, like when boxing commissions cleared Muhammad Ali to fight and it was all his fault? You gotta take the ball from the player, not leave it to them. And he should get to keep that new check, too. He earned it.
He may feel pride to justify that fat contract, but the NFL can’t legit talk player safety if they let this dude back on the field. it’s got to be a league call. That lets the Dolphins and Tua off the hook. Because if he can’t survive a hit like that without twitching, there’s no way he can play a season at quarterback.
That’s a grown man, it’s up to him and his family. The league can’t step in and say he can’t play if cleared and he chooses to play. That opens up a crazy box
The league cant do a damn thing. Idk why yall keep thinking the league can stop hom. They cant. Theres no clause saying well if we feel youre going to die then you cant play. But Hamlin is out there after what happened to jim. Think before you type. It on Tua all the way just like Andrew Luck decided on his own after all his concussions. He decided, not the league.@CorePathway
@@FaceFamous The U.S. is so capitalist that folks who don't make a cent if a corporation does well or not still take its side against the worker. The NFL denied any risk of concussions for decades. Then they changed the tackling rules. They didn't "leave that to the players." They should protect their warriors and honor them-- not treat them like meat.
@@YxYzYx So your boss cannot fire you at any moment or tell you that your services are no longer required because this is a free country? I see. How stupid are you? Between Very and Extremely, where do you fall under?
My thought, even watching the game, Tua was hurt before the hit. He had not been sharp the whole game. I would look at the tap from the Jacksonville game.
@@JJ-ds5fs He had the first down by 2 or 3 yards. I think he was trying to play hero ball and 'make a statement'. I hate to say it, but it is my gut reaction.
If the NFL has the power to deny a player from playing when they’re having unfavorable life choices off the field, they need to also make the harder choice and stop players who might be good for business but put their health at risk.
A fact is fact and NFL should be a part of this decision (even when NFL had faced law suit of players who suffered concussions), for his own good, he shouldn’t be allowed to play a sport in which helmet contact happens all the time. I’m a dolphins’ fan for even more than 30 years.
First thought when I first found out.. way too young to keep playing and risking his life. Has a family already too. Made enough money to retire too. Hope he’s so e
they can't or the fins will be left to pay the contract, if tua is cleared to play by the fins and then retires, the fins can actually get money back that's been paid...
When i hear these Conversations i always think about What Lawrence Taylor say and did in the Movie "Any Given Sunday" Players know the Risks but the Rewards outweigh the Risks
Bro, this is the problem with all these shows and commentators. He's had 3 concussions that we SAW. There are subconcussions constantly happening to everyone on that field that pile up over time and put all their brains at risk. It's not just the big ones that lay you out. It's the sport itself. No one wants to admit this.
apparently there are 2 kinds of guaranteed money in nfl contract. david lombardi of sf 49ner explained it with the aiyuk contract...but yeah, tua should either quit or play entirely differently. why did he not slide when he got the first down already?
Yep, McDaniel did Tua dirty by putting Tua out the week following his fist concussion errr.... 'back injury' (yeah the back of his head) vs the Bills. Hasn't been the same since.
Agreed with most here. Dolphins fan but Tua should not be playing. Clearly if life threatening every time he gets a hard hit. Also he hasn't been right all season makes me think he was concussed recently and team didn't report it.
ITS UP TO THE NFL AND THE DOLPHINS TO PROTECT TUA FROM HIMSELF... IF HE GOES THROUGH THE TESTS AND ALL THE PROBABILITIES OF WHAT IFS AND IF ITS MORE BAD THAN GOOD THEY GOTTA RESPECTFULLY NOT LET HIM PLAY IMO. #PRAYERS #TUA #NFL
Sad for the kid. But that's why the Phins shouldn't have give him, all that cash. Because the kid , does not know when to go down. He shouldn't run those plays, knowing his problem. Very sad
It is simple give percentage of contract to him and work for dolphins. Take it away from salary cap. Then force tua to retire from football. This would all depend on a doctor stating he needs to retire. Or look at reality that football is maybe a sport that may not be viable anymore
As soon as he led with his helmet I told my girl he hurt as soon as he put them arms up we both said he should retire prayers up for Tua man but if you played you know damn well we play on concussions or have been concussed in a minor or mild manner sometimes major but iykyk them headaches and sleepless nights fucking suck
What other athlete have you seen curled up on the field like Tua. Tua head is not made for football. His hits are never a violent impact, but his body responds differently than any other player. On the field, his hands are curled which is different than a headache. Quality of life MATTERS.
Stephen A it's rarely about the money! It's another competitiveness of these players. It's about they have worked thier entire life to get to this point and you expect them to walk away? Tua battles through a broken hip? Or something bad his last year year in college and came back and is finally where he wants to be I'm sure and you think it's that easy to walk away? Easy to say from the outside looking in. I wish I could ask Stephen a if a doctor told you if you keep talking so much you'll eventually loose your voice someday would you walk away from first take? No way!
One name: Sam shields. Green Bay packers cornerback, won a superbowl with them in 2008 as a rookie, had to retire after year four,. Why? He kept getting concussed!! It’s not worth your long term health Tua, time to hang up the cleats my boy. Forget the money, you will hit your head again, whether on the ground, or against another defender, and you will be concussed again, because you head is “Soft” now, smh…Good Job though Tua, job well done!!
Most of yall won't understand because you never was in the battlefield. He did what he had to and played ball. Don't judge of your character but pray he gets better.
No head injury or concussion should be taken lightly. But if the NFL let damar Hamlin play again, who was literally dead on the field, the NFL has no ground to stand on not letting tua play once he's cleared. The Stephen A's keep talking about money and contracts. What about the fact this man has worked his entire life to get to this point , fought back from a horrible hip or leg injury in his last year in college and sat out his rookie season, fought through a coach that didn't believe in him to get to this point. And troy Aikmen was in his 30s when he retired not 24/25 or whatever tua is. This is tua and his family's decision and no one else's .
If he wants to play then he should be able to do what he wants period by the media pushing this it’s gonna cause some rule to be put in effect where if this happens a certain amount of times then your career is over not chill at all he’s a grown man making millions he can make a educated decision with his family and if he wants to retire great if not then well go and ball
He tried to put his helmet in Hamlins chest knowing his past health concerns, but Karma got him.Next time keep the head up and see the Impact through. Prays too you.
it was absolutely a bad hit, on Tua, he absolutely should have known better and he absolutely should have known his position on the field and that he had the first down, that is YOUR JOB as a QB!!
This man is young and I believe has nothing more to prove he made it to the NFL as a starting quarterback time for this man to retire his health is more important than a ring or more money
Tua is the only QB I admire as much as my guy Mike Vick but at the end of the day you have to know when to tap out. Tua had a good run but this life is short so he needs to hang it up and move on to the next chapter. Ride off into the sunset brother.
No head injury or concussion should be taken likely ever. But if the NFL let damar Hamlin play again once health cleared I highly doubt they'd do anything to stop tua once he's cleared. Other than Andrew luck I can't think of a big name QB who put future health above today's game. I don't think money has anything to do with it, it's more he has worked his whole life to get to this point and has finally made it and people want him to walk away? It's a lot easier said then done from the outside looking in. Pride, competitiveness, goals and on. Not saying I think he should keep playing but it's not just a job to most these players and it's not that easy to walk away for these guys. That's why we see players in all sports playing well past their prime. Heck Joe flacco is a Superbowl winning QB, who was the highest paid QB at one point I believe and he's ok being a backup the last 4 or so seasons? It's not for the money I guarantee that.
@@chadbinette3201 fair enough. Either way dude needs to retire or he going to be a veggie or critically insane and go berserk on his family later down the road or himself from severe CTE.
It's incredible that women who never ever put on a helmet and played the first snap constantly running there mouth about something they knew nothing about!!
I've become a fan of Tua his heart is unquestionable he just has to admit that he's not a physical qb and protect himself more he should have slid and not try to run the defensive player over he has to make better decisions cause with him healthy the dolphins can win it all
Either retire or go to a team that will get him an O-line. The way they gas light everyone about Eichenberg and Jackson… retire or go to a team that cares.
Tua needs to retire and get into coaching. He can continue his contribution in football just from the sidelines. His heath is more important then any amount of money.
He should have a conversation with Andrew Luck.
Exactly
Oh really 🥱
wise words
Facts
All on tua at this point. Absolutely everyone warned him.

Why was Tua running and lowering his shoulders like he was a running back?
because he is dumb
In the moment he didn't know if he got the first down, should have slid down but it happened too fast

Should retire
First thought when I first found out.. way too young to keep playing and risking his life. Has a family already too. Made enough money to retire too. Hope he’s so e
He should. His money is secured.
Only a hoe would say that
Definitely
So should boxers retire when they get knocked out?
Tua should call it quits. His life is more important than football.
No he should not be on the field. If he cares about his health and everyone in his family he will not set foot between the lines.
Miami owner should say no to him ever playing for them again.
Tua is already a very wealthy guy
they can't or the fins will be left to pay the contract, if tua is cleared to play by the fins and then retires, the fins can actually get money back that's been paid...
Mike McDaniel sounds like he’s perma stoned.
Nothin wrong wit it 👌😂
rumor has it he only chose to coach teams in states where the sweet leaf was legal
Hey he was caught vaping on the sidelines last year 😜

#FloresWasRight
ur disgusting
I guess so
Forgive me, but what did he say about Tua? I completely forgot
Somebody has to save Tua from himself.
Everyone said this LAST YEAR tua should not be playing football WHY did the dolphins bring him back . 🤦
I can't help but to remember Junior Seau I think Tua should walk away with his body and mind still healthy
I would actually love to hear what Demar Hamlin had to say about this, considering HIS history
I feel bad for Hamlin. I hope McDermott talked to him on the sidelines.
Everybody mad at flores for coaching like his mentor belichick but last time i checked tua didn't get concussed until McDaniel.
Bro, this is the problem with all these shows and commentators. He's had 3 concussions that we SAW.

Flores didn’t let him play 😂 soon as he fucked up FitzMagic cleaned up for him.
he had one in college
What a ridiculous asinine comment.
@@Teampierrellc fair point . But the system was more defense and run the ball
The money is already there iwhether he plays again or not. He got 167 million guaranteed so he can walk away now and have generational wealth.
No. It’s only guaranteed if he stays and plays until the end of the contract. He doesn’t have any additional incentives to get guaranteed money.
@@anthonygant9654really? Didn’t know that. Thought it was guaranteed regardless if he plays or stays. Interesting
@@tomanguyenHe's gotta play 51 percent of the snaps or be on active roster to get 100 percent of the fully guaranteed money...
apparently there are 2 kinds of guaranteed money in nfl contract. david lombardi of sf 49ner explained it with the aiyuk contract...but yeah, tua should either quit or play entirely differently. why did he not slide when he got the first down already?
Not if he gets cleared to play then retires. Then the contract is null and void
Take the guaranteed money and walk away wtf is there to stay for smhh
Guaranteed is voided if he retires
Ryan Clark's "testimony" was powerful and dead accurate. It also supported my feelings that Mike Tomlin is a fabulous human and HOF coach.
Yep, McDaniel did Tua dirty by putting Tua out the week following his fist concussion errr.... 'back injury' (yeah the back of his head) vs the Bills. Hasn't been the same since.
Hey his body, his choice 🤪
Agreed with most here. Dolphins fan but Tua should not be playing. Clearly if life threatening every time he gets a hard hit. Also he hasn't been right all season makes me think he was concussed recently and team didn't report it.
He's already made tens of millions of dollars, and what good is a hundred million more if you can't enjoy it, def should take the Andrew Luck route.

He needs to wear the guardian cap through rest of career
I agree if he continues to play
he gonna look soecial ed

Ever since the Dolphins left the orange bowl they been cursed that’s what happens when you build on an Indian burial ground
Sad for the kid. But that's why the Phins shouldn't have give him, all that cash. Because the kid , does not know when to go down. He shouldn't run those plays, knowing his problem. Very sad
Tua, you should know to protect your head but instead you go head first into another player!!! Why?
Exactly why not slide
Prayers for Tua I think he should have been retired though God got him
Didn't Tua just sign a massive contract with the Dolphins? No way in hell he is walking away without some or most of that money
He’s at least guaranteed $90 million, that’s generational wealth right there. And I’m sure he can find other businesses outside of football
@eddydede4275 that 90 million be gone in 10yrs. Hope he has insurance for his injuries
These keep happening in prime time...he's hurting business
It is simple give percentage of contract to him and work for dolphins. Take it away from salary cap. Then force tua to retire from football. This would all depend on a doctor stating he needs to retire. Or look at reality that football is maybe a sport that may not be viable anymore

It's interesting that of all the reactions I've seen, not 1 person has suggested that Tua, if he comes back, HAS to wear that helmet bump cap
Roger Staubach, Troy Aikman, retired because of continued concussions,
We need to call Ryan tannahill give him the weapons I bet he does good
That hurts 😢
Honestly that's too much money to pass up I would play still
Tua, health over royalty!!!!

This is Tua's 4th season, probably not gonna retire, even know he should, 🙏 for you.
