Tua Tagovailoa
For the second time within a week, Miami Dolphins marquee Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa endured a scary injury on the field. However, this time around he wasn’t able to get back to his, rather was carried off on a stretcher and transported to a hospital.
To make matters as the Cincinnati Bengals broke the winning streak of the Miami Dolphins in excruciating manner. In the second quarter – Tua Tagovailoa went to pass and Bengals’ defensive linesman Josh Tupou flung him down, with Tua hitting the ground as hard as ever. In the replays one could witness that Tua had his fingers locked in in a fencing response.
While hitting the ground Tua Tagovailoa hit the ground, with his left elbow striking the floor with full force and went onto hit back at his helmet. As soon as he went down, not only the Miami Dolphins but even the Cincinnati Bengals showcased their concern for the star Quarterback.
During the painful 27-15 loss, Miami Dolphins revealed that Tua Tagovailoa suffered from back and neck injuries and is taken to the Cincinnati Medical Center. Eventually in the fourth quarter, the team revealed Tua would be discharged from the hospital tonight itself and would make his way with the entire team. Teddy Bridgewater replaced him.
After the Miami Dolphins went onto register an emphatic start in the 2022-23 season, Joe Burrow, Cincinnati Bengals absolutely crushed them in the Week 4 showdown, handing them their first loss of the season.
That being said, will we witness Tua leading the Dolphins in the team’s next showdown. Given that he has suffered from 2 major hits in just five days, will he be able to make his way back? Remains to be seen.
