NFLPA has told the NFL that it wants to initiate a review of the concussion protocols in light of Tua Tagovailoa’s return to today’s game in Miami, per source.
i really can't believe the coach let him back in the game. Or the NFL. He was clearly hurt against the Bills and it's called a loose back. Now Tua might be in bad shape.
As much as I wanted the Chiefs to win... Never at the expense of the health of a player. [Reply]

It all feels so awful….
He was wobbly yet went back in the same game
He starts on 4 days rest after a clear concussion
Nfl colludes with Miami to call this a back injury
Tua gets such a severe concussion his fingers clamp up (many head injury experts are saying 2 concussions in 5 days can be deadly)
He is released from the hospital the same night and allowed to hop on a plane
The chiefs have shelved players like DAT for an entire season for this. The dolphins have reached a point where they’re so intent to cover this up that they’ll keep playing him through this just to prove he wasn’t actually concussed. And the nfl is just as interested in covering their tracks. [Reply]
